Well, I was ALL for that free poster thing, so I told Lux about it, and we made it another of our jaded excursions. I drove down to pick her up, then we headed back uptown to the Palace. When we got there, we were surprised to find that it wasn’t crowded at all. Where’s the *NSYNC love y’all? But then we saw this one car (the ONLY car) that was nsynctified, and Lux took a picture of it:
So we get inside, check our tickets and receive our FREE WNBA/NSYNC poster. Okay, so basically Lux and I were there for the free poster and exclusive video footage, so our tickets weren’t all that great, and we sat in the last row of the lower level in Section 126.
Before the game started, they played the “Pop” video on the jumbotron, and of course Lux and I had to do the dance to it. So we got up and stood at the top of the stairs on the aisle and did it…before the security guy yelled at us and told us we couldn’t because it was a “safety issue.” Pssh…well, after that incident, he made it a point to keep an eye on us the rest of the night. HA! LOL
During the actual basketball game (which we DID watch…sort of), Lux and I worked on writing out some EF business cards. We stopped every so often to sing and dance in our chairs when they played music from “Celebrity” during the time-outs. The family in front of us was flipping out because the two of us were being obnoxious…as usual. At one point, the dad turned around and asked us to settle down.
Finally, halftime rolls around and they showed the sexified “exclusive” footage of the guys. They went behind the scenes of their Rolling Stone shoot, and interviewed the guys about the new album. If you weren’t able to catch a basketball game, don’t worry, you didn’t missoutpeace. Go to nsync-world.com and click under media to see it.
Afterwards, the Palace people got a girl from the crowd for NSYNC trivia. She was trying to win a special “Celebrity” fun pack with CD’s, T-shirts and stuff. The question was: “How many members of *NSYNC have a first name that starts with J?” Well, duh, Lucky and I shouted “FOUR!” And that is the same answer the girl gave, but they pronounced her wrong! “I’m sorry, but the correct answer is three: Justin, JC, and Joey.”
Lux and I were so pissed. “THAT’S BUSTED! IT’S FOUR! Lance’s REAL first name is JAMES! Justin, Joshua, Joseph and James…that makes four! She was jipped!” But we got over it. “Up Against the Wall” came on, and I was inspired to take this pic of Lux and our dates, appropriately titled “AND THE DISCO BALL CAME DOWN!”
Then for the second half of the game, we continued with our advertising. Lucky took her Detroit Shock poster and did some site advertising on the back. I proceeded to hold it up during the remainder of the game. I know you won’t be able to see it in the picture, so I’ll tell you what it said:
*NSYNC Jaded US!! *Lucky & Olivia

WE ARE NOT ASHAMED!! It’s just about RESPECT!
After the game (Detroit lost), we were walking around to the entrance we came in, and I see this box of WNBA/NSYNC posters. I’m thinking, “There’s probably only a few in there, I want that box.” So Lux and I put our stuff in the box, and I picked it up and made off with it. Security saw me and said, “Hey! Excuse me!” and started following us. Lux is like, “Don’t look back…keep walking.” But he didn’t follow for long, having been distracted by some REAL delinquents. LMAO
Then I realized the box was heavy, and Lux carried it the rest of the way to the car. When we popped open my trunk and threw the box in, we opened it up to see how many posters there were. I seriously only thought there was 20-30 in the box…there were 250-300! Whoops. Oh well…here’s me, Buddy, and Busta with the box:
Before we left, Lux and I left our EF business cards on various cars, including the Nsyncmobile. Then we wound up at Denny’s, where we provoked even more stares by taking more pictures of our dates. While we were waiting for our orders, Buddy took the time to fill out a Denny’s work application:
