Mad Rush for (Hypothetical) Seattle Supersonics Season Tickets Breaks Internet

Seattle Supersonics fans broke the interwebs this morning.

A priority waiting list for (potential) season tickets to the (potential) Seattle Sonics 2.0 went live this morning on SonicsArena.com. Or least it was supposed to.

Whether is was the crushing press of crazed Sonics fanatics or the sinister work of Sacramento computer ninjas, the site was unavailable most of the morning.

As of 10:30 this morning this site is still down, but you can still access the survey here, which will get you on the (potential) wait list.

UPDATE: Looks like the site is back up. Go over there and get some virtual tickets for all your virtual friends! 

Arena Porn: Chris Hansen releases steamy new pics of Seattle Supersonics Arena

Chris Hansen's supergroup of money peoples released some new photos of the proposed Seattle Supersonics arena, this time revealing the creamy filling, er, interior bowl.

One of the most interesting parts is how the overhang allows fans to be right on top of the court, reminding me a bit of the old McArthur Court at University of Oregon, where the vertigo inducing upper deck made you feel like you were going to fall onto the court if you hiccuped.

Another thing that popped out was the different logos used. Personally, I'm hoping they stick with the old-school Green Lantern model instead of Starbucks Light or the mid-90s Christmas Special.
