JON BOLEN is a senior manager with Rolls Royce, based locally in Indianapolis. He has
been a long-time Indiana Fever season ticket holder and attended the Fever’s very first
game in 2000. His oldest daughter, Samantha (now 23) attended games as a young girl
and now his youngest daughter (Josie is 11) attends every game. Jon has coached both
his daughters’ youth basketball teams and the girls have literally grown up with the Fever.
WHAT MAKES THE GAME EXPERIENCE SO
SPECIAL?
“Having two daughters that played basketball, there
are teaching moments and learning experiences.
Both girls have become recognized by the players,
by attending games and so many of the team’s
special events. The players have always
been very friendly and developed nice
relationships with the girls. As a dad, that’s
pretty special to see for your kids.”

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THE FEVER
FOR YOUR SUMMER ENTERTAINMENT?
“We’ve become part of the Fever Family,
if you will. My girls have built strong
relationships with the players over time. I
think it is the ability to actually interact with
players that has meant so much. Having
Fever players actually come watch your
daughter play an AAU game. That’s what
really has been special. And now, Samantha
has graduated college and comes to games
herself.”
