the only thing is i really don't know squat about hockey. i looked at the driver for the trip in the locker room and said, "i'm sure this is really awesome but i have no idea. if this were, like, the pistons or something i'd probably be peeing my pants."
and, my boss got good laughs out of the whole deal because he LOVES hockey and thinks it's hilarious that i didn't know what a short handed goal was. he said if he got to go it probably would have made his month. in hindsight i should have gotten something signed for him. sorry ryan. i didn't think of it until this afternoon.
the people in the picture down here are the reason i got to be around for all this hockey crazyness. on the left here we have my friend bob, a younger man with parkinson's disease who is in the care of hospice. going to the game was his last wish through hospice.
on the right here we have henrik zetterberg. apparently he's like really awesome or something. ryan says he's probably their star.
any other sport and i might have had a clue.
oh yeah. the game was freakin' awesome. detroit went down 3-0 and came back to win 4-3 in overtime.

I am nearly insanely jealous. I love hockey -- perhaps because its one of the few sports I actually understand or because I went to many, many games in high school, even practicing with a girls club team. I'm not sure whether I can ever speak to you again.
P.S. You do know what a puck is, right?
Hockey is overrated
