Denver Nuggets host Southwest Airlines employees for “Trading Places” event

Continuing an annual tradition, the Denver Nuggets worked with employees of Southwest Airlines for a fun and unique event in which the two parties traded places with one another, thus experiencing the grind of each profession.

Last year, Nikola Jokiu0107 and Jamal Murray went to Denver International Airport to work for Southwest. The two faces of the franchise loaded luggage onto a plane, greeted passengers upon both their arrival and departure from the airport and even made PA announcements before a flight to St. Louis took off.

On Monday, the tables were turned as Southwest employees visited Pepsi Center to briefly live and experience the lives of professional basketball players.
