The questions will be displayed on screens throughout the arena, including the main 25′ high by 58′ wide video board.
GAC Executive Vice President, William Hill, says: “We are delighted to extend our support of the Houston Rockets. By connecting with Rockets’ fans in a very real way, we hope to further demonstrate our commitment to the energy sector that drives the city and the ways in which GAC can support that industry and the people who work in it.”
