Meant to post these on the weekend, but figured we could all use this today. Here are some pics of our awesome press box tour Beasley gave us. Thanks to Csnarpy for making it happen.
Warning, lots of pics.
As someone afraid of heights, I wasn't sure about wandering across the catwalks way the hell up there.
First stop was to see Willy Joosen. As a Jazz musician, he's exactly as you expect, a pretty cool cat. He had some Czech recordings he played for Petr.
Next we went up and into the NHL stats guys area and then out across the catwalks to the other side of the arena. These next two shots Petr took. When I told Beas I wasn't good with heights he said "follow me, just look at my back, and don't look down." I did as he said and made it...though I was quite happy to get to the other side. The payoff was Cassie!
Given the talk in the Dallas game last night of the emergency backup getting suited up I thought I'd include this.
Petr taking Wills' job.
Steve, Beasley's director showing us the script and explaining how the production is run. Once they found out Petr was a radio guy they went into great detail. It was really interesting.
Again, Thanks to Bealsey and The Flames for the great tour. Dougie even got in a photobomb.
