Hello Utah Jazz fans 💜🩵
I am fairly ~new~ to X (do we call it X or still twitter? lol)
I am trying to follow the best Utah Jazz accounts!
Give me your advice - Who should I follow?

I got a message this week from a news reporter 🤩
I feel like I have to say yes, right? Opportunity of a lifetime to share my story, mission to preserve, and collection.
Happy Birthday to Jazz Legend, Paul Millsap

I’ve been thinking for a long time about how I want to say this …please read.
TLDR; he was fired because the Jazz wanted to make more money and because of office politics.
Jon was an entertainer at heart and did a great job getting the crowd excited. But as times changed (aka
I’m seeing the new jerseys on tons of NBA platforms and the most annoying argument I see is “why are they still the Jazz?”
“They need to give the Jazz back to New Orleans.”
“There’s no Jazz in Utah.”
It bugs me so much, it is such a low IQ argument.
TLDR; I collect game worn jerseys/warmups and Frank Layden asked me to preserve the history.
I’ve been a Jazz fan all my life and always loved collecting vintage Jazz stuff here and there (like from thrift stores, etc) and it evolved into collecting game worn uniforms and warm

What is your story with the Utah Jazz?
I scrolled back on your posts as far as Elon would let me, and maybe I missed it, but if you haven't posted a video on it, it'd be dope to know how you became THE

I think this is actually an important reminder for Jazz nation — remember that what you tweet will be seen by players, their family, and their friends.
Don’t be harsh or negative. You are not the GM. You are not the coach. Stay positive and always show support.
That’s the
I’m so flattered but I am not an industry plant 😂 I post videos from my living room and have a collecting addiction. 🤣 it’s not any deeper than that
My husband and I have been collecting Jazz memorabilia for over a decade and have met with players and heard stories from them.

“So much cringe in one vid”?
What are you 18 years old? Come up with an actual argument with the facts I’ve presented. Or are you just a typical Jordan dickrider that will say “he would’ve found a way to win no matter what”

Origin story of the Utah Jazz Mountain Logo 😍
Thomas O’Grady was amazing to talk with and explained how he created the mountain logo.
He is BRILLIANT and made most of the NBA logos from the 90’s.
Do you prefer the Note logo 🎷 or mountain logo 🏔️?
With the news of possible expansion of an NHL team I thought it would be fun to share the history of the

7 facts about 7’4” Mark Eaton!
He was one of the nicest people I have ever met.
He was so genuine and interested in our conversation. I really miss Big Mark 💜

I acquired A TON more VHS tapes this week from another former Utah Jazz employee — including the 1973 ABA all-star game that was hosted in Utah 😳
It looks like there’s some never before seen footage too like a Christmas party from 1997. I am so excited to start digitizing
The Jazz haven’t done anything this offseason to keep things exciting.
I have some extra Nike shirts (with tags and everything) I am happy to hand out to fans and followers.
Should I make things interesting for Jazz fans again while we wait for next season to start? 😝
Before you all come after me for hating on Fisher, I would also like to say that he did the same thing again to the Mavericks.
He said he wanted to spend more time with his family (who was in LA) so Mark Cuban let him out of his contract and then Fisher signed with OKC shortly
Brian Challis (sculptor) saw this video and we met in person! He was so nice and he told me some fun stories about sculpting the statues
Is anyone interested in hearing some of the stories or was I the only one that was excited to talk with him 😂
Which player/coach deserves a statue outside the Delta Center?
Brian Challis has a website where he documented the process of making both the Stockton and Malone statues and it's fascinating. Go check it out!

We showed her the poster and she loved it! 😍 She took a picture and sent it to Luka!! Haha what a small world
Oh this is a REALLY good story. 😂
So yes, many of the stunts or acts he did were staged but some were real that were in the moment.
There was one fight in particular that was not staged that landed him in court.
Jon was messing around with some guys girlfriend/wife sitting

Do you have a video of the guy who got mad and assaulted the bear because he didn’t like the prank and security took him out? Not sure if that was an act or real.

Thanks for this— I got to present him this portrait once, always wondered what happened to the original Jazz Bear… he was so entertaining, maybe the best in the NBA

‘Houston, we are your problem’ then a Jazz note and some photos of ‘The Shot’ and the 07 and 08 wins.
(Conveniently leave out the series where Harden eliminated us back to back in 18 and 19 😂)
People say John Stockton’s assist record of 15,806 is an unbreakable record.
Here’s where they’re wrong, it’s totally breakable:
All you would have to do is get at least 29 assists per game for all 82 games and do that for 6.5+ seasons straight. It’s really not that hard,

This is probably my favorite hat as of right now.
The Utah All-Star Weekend logo from 1993 is one of my all time favorites.
Has there ever been a better All-Star Logo?

I’ve had a few people ask about the Utah Jazz Bear snowboard in my videos.
It was used by Bear for a stunt down the arena stairs during the finals in 1997 🏂❄️
Bear told me he didn’t know how to snowboard so he asked a local guy to teach him just so he could do this stunt.
With the Utah Jazz returning home after 6 straight away games, I thought it would be fun to go over the history of the home arenas 😊
The Jazz have played in 7 different home arenas. Can you name them all?
