Fans of the San Antonio Spurs are headed for a spot in the NBA record books Friday as the team makes a return to the Alamodome, its home from 1993 to 2002.

The “Back Home in the Dome” game is the highlight of the Spurs’ celebration of its 50th year in San Antonio. The Alamodome was the second arena used by the Spurs, who first played at the since-demolished HemisFair Arena after moving to San Antonio in 1973 from Dallas.

For the Spurs’ attempt to break the NBA attendance record, the Alamodome was configured to seat 65,000. As of Thursday morning, the team said 64,387 tickets had been distributed for the game, so the team released additional standing-room spots on the floor and some obstructed-view seats to accommodate additional demand.
