Yes 'Cers: Downtown Indy traffic is jammed with people trying to score free Pacers gear
Terri Thompson started waiting in line outside Gainbridge Fieldhouse for free 'Yes'Cers' swag at 12:37 p.m. The decades-long Pacers fan was the first in line for the giveaway June 4, one day before the Pacers kick off their first appearance in the NBA since 2000. Longtime fan Thompson remembers the same type of hype — much of it around star Reggie Miller — the last time the team went to the playoffs. "I remember this wasn't even Gainbridge," Thompson told IndyStar. "They were giving away some free bobble heads but I was too late back then. I made sure I'd be right on time today." The Pacers organization is passing out 5,000 swag bags to people in their cars on the Pennsylvania Street side of Gainbridge Fieldhouse from 4 to 7 p.m. today. One bag per vehicle while supplies last. The line started at 3:30 p.m. Follow IndyStar reporter Jade Jackson live on Twitter below: Tweets by IAMJADEJACKSON More: How to score free Pacers 'Yes'cers' gear in downtown Indy today The bag includes several "Yes'cers" themed items, like sunglasses, a T-shirt, a small pep flag, and a poster, according to an online post by the official Pacers pages.
