Just found out Tech has a hockey team, and the tix are only $4 for students. I can afford $4. Finally, a sporting event I can afford to go to. It's the ACHA, and we're ranked 11th in the West. LOL.
Let's just hope there's blood. Do they stop the fighting in college hockey? Laugh all you want, but that's all I care about. Big guys on skates are funny enough, but you add blood and teeth to the mix, and I'm in. I watch football for the strategy, basketball for the finesse, baseball...well, bc it's baseball, but hockey holds interest for me mainly in its freak show appeal. No offense to the PPA. ;) I doubt we've got any Czech players for you to write about anyway.
The last time I saw a hockey game, it was bc I (or rather my company) had a nice little box for the 'Hawks. Freakin' awesome seats, but you got lost in the luxury of it.
Wasn't quite the same as when I used to watch the Waco Wizards play. Wow. No plush seats, waiters, free food, and import beer for me there. In fact, it was played in an open air coliseum. The game was fogged out once because of the heat. LOL. Ah Texas. It's amazing our state actually had a Stanley cup champion. Then again, I imagine we just imported them straight from Canada.
You know, though, I can't dog on the Wizards. They were hard core, and I used to drink with the team at my local watering hole. Nice guys, but damn. I remember one game where a slap shot actually broke the glass and knocked a woman out. Wow. That was a good game. See, again, it's the freak show aspect that gets me every time.
Ah well. It's something to do if I can shake this funk. I just wish I could get into football games cheaper. Since we're undefeated, I'm not thinking they'll give us $4 seats. Sigh.
Did I mention we're undefeated? Eat that, McBaby. ;) Oh and Glinda, if they throw any dildos, I'll take a picture for you.

Good old southwestern college hockey. A good portion of my years at Arizona was spent watching games that ended 63-11, with 35 people in the stands, many of them the dregs of society (myself included).
