Charlotte Daily Deals 11/6/12: Charlotte Bobcats, Crave Dessert Bar ...

Charlotte Bobcats Game at Time Warner Cable Arena on November 17, 23, or 30 (Up to 77% Off). Nine Options Available.

Going to a basketball game lets fans feel the excitement and hear the pleas for quiet from the family living underneath the bleachers. Root for the home team with this GrouponLive deal.

Choose from the Following Options

  • For $20, you get one G-Pass for upper-level center-court or corner seating in sections 203?214 or 220?231(up to an $88 value, including all fees).
  • For $35, you get one G-Pass for lower-level corners or baseline seating in sections 101?103 or 116?117 (up to a $102.05 value, including all fees).
  • For $75, you get one G-Pass for club-level sideline seating in sections 104, 106, 113, or 115 (up to a $174.85 value, including all fees).

For each seating option, choose from the following games:

  • Against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday, November 17, at 7:30 p.m. This game includes a winter Bobcats hat.

  • Against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday, November 30, at 7 p.m. This game includes one postgame shot on the court.

Fans at the November 17 and November 23 games report before halftime to a redemption table near section 112 to receive their hats or T-shirts. Fans at the November 30 game report to the table near section 112 after the game, then head down to the court to take a shot. Gospel recording artist Canton Jones will perform a free postgame concert on November 17, the first 5,000 fans at the November 23 game will receive a free Kemba Walker bobblehead, and the first 1,500 children at the November 30 game will receive a free player poster.

Gates open 60 minutes before tipoff. Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call.

The Scouting Report

With the 2012?13 season just underway, the Charlotte Bobcats have leapt to a 1?1 start as they vie for dominance in the Eastern Conference's competitive Southeast Division. This year's Bobcats team exudes youth, with a first-year head coach calling the shots and a starting five that showcase three players with three years of experience or less in the NBA, including this year's second overall draft pick. Their opponents in these three games?Memphis, Atlanta, and Philadelphia?all made playoff runs in 2012, challenging the young team's ability to stay up past their bedtimes if a game goes into overtime.

Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

Two- or Three-Night Stay for Up to Six at Park Lane Hotel in Hilton Head

Southern Estate Surrounded by Palmetto Trees and Championship Golf Courses

Hilton Head Island is only 12 miles long and 5 miles wide, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in recreation. Year-round, more than 2.5 million visitors pass through the island, sunning themselves on some of the Atlantic seaboard's finest beaches, pedaling through the countryside on miles of scenic bike trails, and teeing off at more than 45 championship golf courses. Shaded by magnolia and palmetto trees, Park Lane Hotel sits in the center of the island, just minutes from beaches, shopping, and gourmet restaurants. The hotel combines laid-back luxury with sports facilities including tennis courts, a basketball court, and a kids' playground.

An arched driveway leads to the Park Lane Hotel's stately entrance, which is adorned with thick columns and white chimneystacks rising from a slate roof. Inside, each spacious suite features a full kitchen with granite countertops. Overstuffed armchairs and fireplaces create a cozy environment for unwinding or pretending to be Alistair Cooke on Masterpiece Theatre.

One or Two-Night Stay for Up to Three with Appetizer and Wine at Crestwood Resort & Spa in Boone, North Carolina

Luxurious Resort Tucked in Scenic Mountains

In 1948, Claus Moberg invested just $25 an acre to acquire a sprawling 30-acre apple orchard, upon which he eventually built a quaint cottage for his family. Each summer, the Moberg family retreated to the abode tucked between dense forests, where guests can now get views of the mountains of North Carolina's High Country. Claus's touch is still evident throughout the hallways of the spacious Crestwood Resort & Spa, which displays his original artwork and floor plans.

A shaded stone walkway leads to the resort's homey interiors. There's a gas fireplace in the inviting Elite king room, and the Luxury queen room's two queen beds are decked in mounds of pillows. As is the case with many of the resort's rooms, a private terrace overlooks the towering Blue Ridge Mountains and the lush wooded surroundings.

Crestwood's onsite restaurant, The Table, partners with local producers to serve farm-to-table fare infused with an upscale European touch, such as sugary pork strip or piquant shrimp and grits. The Table is open daily from 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. and the bar opens at 4 p.m. Elsewhere inside, white columns gird a placid lap pool at the onsite spa, which pampers guests with refreshing facials and reflexology massages.

North Carolina's High Country: Mountain Adventure and Gemstone Mines

In the High Country of North Carolina, the Blue Ridge Mountains and surging rivers set the stage for whitewater rafting and cave tours. In the winter, the snow-capped slopes double as runs for skiing and sledding. In addition to undertaking outdoor adventures, you can step into the past at nostalgic general stores and sift for precious stones and docile pet rocks at old-fashioned gemstone mines.
