Recientemente SS&E propietaria del equipo Spurs de San Antonio (afiliado a la NBA), en el estadio AT&T Center presentó durante el medio tiempo de su partido contra el equipo visitante Nuggets de Denver, a la espectacular agrupación Electric Avenue Acro (porra de acrobacia). Electric Avenue Acro, tiene su sede en las afueras de la ciudad de Austin, el condado de Travis (en el Gymnastics Center), donde ha logrado acumular fama estatal por su dedicada labor de preparar a gimnastas con la finalidad de una excelente formación física y calidad de vida. El grupo de gimnasia visitante compartió la cancha con la también espectacular porra Leander Dance, con sede en el Cedar Park de Leander, Texas. Los más de 18 mil espectadores premiaron su espectacular actuación con emotiva ovación, lo cual les motivara para continuar adelante en sus futuras presen- taciones de 2019. Con este evento SS&E, en su nuevo formato de entretenimiento presentado durante la duración de sus partidos locales (AT&T Center), por compromiso comunitario ha venido cumpliendo con lo proyectado por la mesa directiva que preside la mujer de negocios Julianna Hawn Holt, y su equipo de colaboradores. La Prensa Texas, desea todo lo mejor a cada agrupación, la noble afición y a los Spurs que están a punto de clasificarse para disputar lo que puede ser su 22º playoff consecutivo en la Conferencia del Oeste, donde han capturado seis trofeos de campeones y a la vez cinco argollas de monarca en la NBA.
