The tickets were for tomorrow’s game against , the Boston Celtics. This is a quarter final playoff game and those tickets were free.
Several members of the hype team jumped onto a table and led the crowd in a Sixers chant. The spent about 10 minutes handing out Sixers swag and then they were gone. This was supposed to be a surprise but several die hard fans found out abut it and were there waiting.
