Yes, and the sherpa can order another 2 beers for her.

Try to sit low enough in the sportchek zone to see the jumbotron completely. It helps very much to see replays and some events with a zoom in
This.

Yeah I'm definitely going to gun for the lowest seats I can! That's the good part about general seating I suppose! I am not sure what time we are going to the game unfortunately, hopefully in plenty of time!! And no worries about the he/she mix-up

He doesn't have a choice anymore. All seats in the 'bleeds are assigned now.

I never got why people wear a jersey to the game of a team not even playing. I was in Carolina visiting family and went to the Canes-Habs game (The money from the free bobblehead might pay for the ticket.) and I was sitting up high and not only did the place reek of beer and bar-b-q, some guy was wearing this hideous thing. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BPcSjzPhVy...07-Coyotes.jpg

The only thing I can think of is that they figure it fits in because it's a hockey game and it's a hockey jersey. I agree with you though.

Today's the big day! Can't wait to be back in the Dome again! I'll look out for people discussing CP.

DO NOT GET UP WHILE PLAY IS HAPPENING.

Pet peeve of mine. If you get up to pee, wait for a whistle. If you're coming back, wait for a whistle. I don't want to miss a scoring chance because you had to get an extra beer or more nachos.

which by the way offends me as an American ( my wife says us Americans most of us anyway are way more patriotic about our anthems than you guys are), it sounds stupid , and is not even original .. The stars fans sound like buffoons when they yell during the anthem as well....

Just my opinion that I am entitled too...


and just something i missed this year, in past years they did the canadian anthem acapella this year they didnt ... I missed the honking horns during the anthem.
