GO GRIZZ!! Game 4 at FedEx Forum in Beautiful Downtown Memphis in the Shadow of Historic Beale Street



GO GRIZZ in lights on the First Tennesee bank building



For those far away and detached from the happenings here, the Memphis Grizzlies won game 3 of the NBA playoffs last night in Memphis against the San Antonio Spurs. An historic win for us. An overjoyed throng of fans (18 some odd thousand) flowed out of the Forum last night into the streets downtown. Car horns honking, people still cheering and laughing, a group of girls rode by on one of the horse drawn carriages chanting "Grizzlies, Grizzlies, Grizzlies..." How can I say what the impact has been on Memphians? It's huge. Just huge. Best out of seven, we've won 2 of 3. We believe! Today's CA article

I can see the First Tennessee building from my porch. Seeing "GO GRIZZ" in lights is a symbol of how special this truly is for Memphis. For us downtowners, and those that frequent downtown more often than others, anytime the building pays homage in this way it's a special thing. Right now it's a GRIZZLIES thing! BELIEVE!!!
