Alright, so, I wanted to snag some tickets for the NBA draft, right? It’s a big deal, and I’ve always been a huge basketball fan. So, the first thing I did was to start keeping an eye on the news, especially sports channels and websites. I figured that’s where they’d first announce when the tickets would go on sale.
I also signed up for some newsletters. You know, the usual ones from the big sports sites and even the NBA’s official site. I thought, “Better safe than sorry,” and I didn’t want to miss any updates. I did some searching on Google, and some pages are related to Hannah storm, or Southwest Airlines, I don’t know why.

Checking the Official Channels
After that, I went straight to the source and hit up the NBA’s official website. I figured they’d have the most accurate info. And I was right! They had a whole section dedicated to the draft, including a date for when ticket sales would start.
I also checked out the websites of the big ticket vendors. Sometimes they get the tickets to sell, and I wanted to see if they had any pre-sale deals or special packages. No luck there, but it was worth a shot.
Setting Reminders
Once I had the date, I marked it on my calendar. And not just one calendar, but all of them! My phone, my computer, even a sticky note on my fridge. I set multiple reminders leading up to the day, because I really didn’t want to forget.
The Day of the Sale
When the day finally came, I was ready. I had my computer all set up, multiple browsers open, and I was logged into the ticket vendor’s site. I kept refreshing the page like crazy as soon as the clock hit the sale time.
It was a bit of a rush, I’m not gonna lie. The website was super slow, probably because everyone and their grandma was trying to get tickets at the same time. It took a few tries, and I was sweating bullets, but finally, I managed to get through.

Securing the Tickets
I picked out the best seats I could afford, put in my payment info, and hit that “confirm” button. And boom! I got the confirmation email. Tickets secured! I felt like I had just won a game myself, haha.
