Dallas! Stars!
Tonight I went to the Stars/Toronto game. And it was unbelieveably awesome! Half the time I had no idea what was going on down there (I remain completely ignorant about the rules of Hockey), but that didn't matter at all. It was fast paced and action packed! One good fight, and a couple of almost fights. Plenty of rough body checks. Flying pucks. It was amazing! I wish I was right behind the glass (well, the suite wasn't too shabby so I can't really complain), because, man, when they slammed each other into the sides that was the coolest. That, combined with the sticks clicking when they fought for the puck were the best sounds. They did an awesome job to keep the crowd going! My voice went out a couple of times, but I didn't care. SO. MUCH. FUN!!
During the anthem, when the words go Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, and Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, the crowd screamed the word "stars" so loud. It was amazing!
Dallas won! 4:3.
And all the while I had a strong hankering to re-read Hawks and Hands.
I love hockey. Who knew!
