wow the sabres game was a marathon. 2 overtimes. i wish i could say i got my money’s worth out of the game but…since i didn’t pay for the ticket it doesn’t quite seem fair LOL. but yeah. defintely worth it for sure. we took phil’s bro and his friend to dave and busters before the game. for those who don’t know it, it’s a restaurant with a huge arcade and bowling alley and other nonsense. like the boston pizza on clifton hill in the falls canada. ate and headed down to the arena. last row 300 level, but wtf who cares. you can see the whole ice. and later it turns out the scratched players were sitting in a box behind us. andrew peters kept leaning over to talk to people and everyone started throwing the shirts we got when we walked in up to him to sign. taylor pyatt (hott) was up there too and peeked out a few times. so hott.
anyway. the game was great. we looked like we had it made, until tony lydman became this year’s zhitnik and took 3 penalties and cost us the lead, almost cost us a goal in OT, but we pulled it out in the 2nd OT. it was fabulous! 58 shots, we should have won the thing 15-1 as phil predicted haha. but no matter, a win is a win. we get to go to work and rub it into pit greg tomorrow, as he loves the flyers. we’re gonna bring him a broom when we sweep later this week 🙂 it was so stressful and tiring by the time the 2nd OT came around…
sometimes i wonder if other people catch the humor and appropriateness of some of the songs that the arena organ guy plays…because it’s quite funny sometimes but i have a feeling that most people miss it…
took a picture with sabretooth when we got in and it was fabulous but i forgot to hit save so i lost it..next time. and still no sabretooth stuffed animals. boo. there is a fun bus stop billboard with a photo of sabretooth as if he’s waiting for the bus hahaha. i want it.
fun fun fun. i still hadn’t heard from channel 2 so i emailed every night time, weekend days, sports casters and daybreak people about seeing the cup on monday morning. i actually got a reply from stu boyer but he didn’t know what was going on with it. gave me a few numbers to call, of people who will be in on monday but that may be too late for me. i think i might just go down monday morning and be like yeah, i’m here to see the cup. and if they have a list of people and i’m not on it, i’ll give them my phone and play the message for them from jodi johnston because i haven’t deleted it yet hahaha. I WANNA SEE THE CUP DAMNIT!
