With a great reputation for winter sports cemented by hosting the 2002 Winter Olympics, and several high quality skiing destinations on the city's doorstep, Salt Lake City is also home to the famous Utah Jazz basketball Team, who play in the Western Conference Northwest Division of the NBA. You can get tickets to most matches on the day, and a popular activity before the game is a tailgate party in the car park, when people get together for a few drinks and food while they wait for the action to begin. Turn up early and join in, you'll be more than welcome.
