Hockey Day

On Wednesday Ken and I went to the Ducks /Oilers game for his birthday. Ken had wanted to go to this game since he first saw the schedule and saw that a game fell on his birthday. Unfortunately, I didn't have money at the time. On Tuesday, I got a call from Brad Vaughn, a drummer I know, saying he had two club level tickets to the game. He GAVE me two $89.00 tickets for free. Here are some pics from the game.

The coolest part of the Club Level: Gold Toilet Plumbing!!!

Here's a video I took in the parking lot. I think we were a bit early.

The View From Up There

Have you have ever been to a sporting event and thought, "I wonder what the view is like from way up there?" Well, here is a picture from my seats at the Honda Center for Anaheim Ducks games (The optical zoom is maxed.) There is only one row higher than mine. I think they are some of the best seats in the house. I sat eight rows from the glass. Guess what? There's a bunch of plexiglass in front of you distorting the view. In Anaheim when you sit in the expensive seats, you are surrounded by the people who are sitting close because that's the place to be, not because they love hockey. Real fans sit in the nosebleeds.

Hockey Day

It's Hockey Day! Tonight I'm going to my first of 10 regular season games of the Stanley Cup Champion Anaheim Ducks. My best friend, Ken, and I are celebrating his birthday by doing all his favorite things: Fry's Electronics, dinner, and hockey. Hopefully the Ducks can continue their winning ways tonight against the Nashville Predators and build off the success of Monday's 6-3 victory over the Detroit Red Wings. GO DUCKS!!!!!!!
