W hat do you get when you cross the Denver Nuggets, slam-dunks and a whole lot of Catholics? For the third year in a row, the Denver Nuggets are hosting Catholic Families Night at the Pepsi Center on Sunday, Nov. 20, where they will face- oƒ against the Utah Jazz for a regular season game. As with last year, Arch- bishop Samuel J. Aquila will be the special guest for the evening 's game, and Catholic youth from around the archdiocese will have the chance to be directly involved with the game, includ- ing VIP experiences, the flag presenta- tion, and forming a high-five tunnel for the Nuggets before the game. "Catholic Families Night is a won- derful chance for the faithful of north- ern Colorado to gather for an evening of fun, fellowship and faith," Archbishop Aquila said. "It is a great witness for the Catholic community to come and enjoy a basketball game together, and I'm grateful to the Denver Nuggets for hosting this special night for Catholics. I look forward to cheering them on to a victory over the Utah Jazz!" Catholic Families Night was origi- nally organized in 2013 by Gold Grown Foundation CEO and former Denver Nugget Bill Hanzlik, in conjunction with Jeƒ Stemper of the Denver chap- ter of the Saint Sebastian Project, Tom Sauer and Mark Strawbridge, director of the Denver Catholic Schools Athletic League. Last year, ticket packages were oƒered in which "supporters" could buy bundles of tickets to give away to priests, nuns, and other religious. They gave over 900 tickets away last year, and they hope to give away even more the year. One of the big draws of the event, besides being able to attend a Denver Nuggets game for cheap, is the basket- ball clinic for youth that takes place before the big game.† "The clinics are really good. It's just fun for the kids," Hanzlik said. "We tell them to wear their school basketball uniforms if they can." This year, the pre-game activities will happen from 1-4 p.m. on the main court of the Pepsi Center.
