Take Us To Another Place, Take Us To Another Land

beer geek, not beer snob.

For raising the ticket prices. Me and the family were going to go. Now of course it’s way too much for a fam of 5 to attend. Really wish I could go. Have fun guys. And don’t worry about partying. Just walk out the front door of the arena and they are right there.

Are you sure Matthew drinks? In between the 2nd and 3rd periods of the Wild game, I smuggled up two Corona’s, sans the lime, and he put both of them on your coat. As I left, three possibilities crossed my mind;
1. Kills doesn’t like Corona. especially with no stinking lime
2. Kills is a health nut and doesn’t drink – I remember him talking about that workout that was supposed to be so difficult , when he was doing that fundraiser- (The workout had something to do with Jillian I think.)
3. Or he was pretending to give you the beers and as soon as i left he shotgunned them before an andyfrain could take them away or you could return.

At any rate it was nice meeting one of the triumvirate of mentally challenged that night. I was expecting someone about 6’3" and 240#’s – based on that film shot in the Dark Knight he claimned to be in. Obviously, the Hagrid looking dude was not Killion.

SWORDFIGHT!

I just bought tickets to the 3/21 Vancouver game and realized it’s a Toews bobble-head giveaway. Game starts at 7. When would they open the doors to the U.C.? I should know this as I did it once a couple years ago for a Kane bobble-head night, but I can’t quite recall when they opened the doors.

Myself and my gorgeous fiance’ will be in attendance and jacked to meet the group. We’ve wanted to spend a weekend in nashville for quite sometime and just havent made it happen. When I heard about SC’s plan to make it their trip i told her we had to go as im a long time reader and lifelong fan of the Four Feathered ! ( snuck listening to the games on the transistor radio under my pillow in grade school ) … Perhaps you seen me on the Channel 7 TV news sports interview outside the stadium before the Vancouver playoff game last season. I had the “Lord Stanley” customized red jersey. If you do you’ll see it in person. I’ll be wearing it in all its glory Friday night. Hope it makes it thru the night unscathed ! LOL..See you all then

Where was I?

Enjoy Nashville…it ain’t a bad venue for pre-hockey/hockey/post-hockey.

A couple of things:
- Flying Saucer is pretty awesome…four blocks from Bridgestone Arena. Comfy couches and waitresses in (very) mini-skirts.
- Strip joints are BYOB…I shit you not.
- Jack’s BBQ is terrific for a local flavor. So is Pancake Pantry for the morning after the Hawks lose.
- The Hawks should have beaten the Wings in regulation, not lose in overtime. What the hell?
- Another post game location is The Printers Alley there are four or five bars that aren’t half bad. Short walk from the arena.

Anyway, good luck…well, not really. You know the deal.

And I promise, no trap.

Welcome to Nashville!

Making the voyage with the wife from Columbus. Flying Saucer is a great pre and post game spot. Wearing red shirt with giant Hawk on it. Brother in law got me one of those minimalist shirts for xmas. Strangely intriguing. So much so I made it my avatar.
