I had upper and lower bowl tickets that I had won in the lottery. I ended up selling the lower bowl ones, as the Canadian team was expected to lose horribly. There were plenty of Russian fans, who were paying through the nose for the tickets. Being just out of school at the time, it seemed like the correct thing to do was to attend and watch from the upper bowl.
The Canadians scored 3 times in the first period....and just kept on scoring. I've never been in a hockey stadium like that. The whole place erupted (well not the large amount Russian fans who were easily identifiable by their over the top jerseys and coats) and the party kept going.
2nd craziest live sporting event I've been to besides the Seattle Seahawks/Green Bay comeback in 2015 on their way to the superbowl.
