April 27th happenings

Since there's not big title attached to this one don't be alarmed this is due to the fact that I don't have any huge topics I have to get off my chest or anything today. Which is usually where the titles come in at. But anyways enough of my babbling on about titles and onto what happened to me today.

Since today is Friday I'm sure most of you had some planned activity or a last minute idea, since it's one of the worst things not to have plans on a Friday night. I, too, was lucky enough to have the day off work to relax and just enjoy my day. I even made plans for my evening and that of late has been a rarity. This wonderful evening of mine was spent doing one of the many things I enjoy and that is watching a great hockey game. (As my blog continues you may find that there will be two things I will discuss often and they are NASCAR and hockey. So fair warning.) I could go into great detail and tell you everything that I remember, but for my readers that do not understand nor like this sport I shall spare you and just say... Congratulations Waterloo Blackhawks on an impressing win against the Lancers this evening. It was an amazing game, filled with a few scraps that is something that is fun to watch but I do not encourage at all unless necessary. 4 wonderful goals by the Hawks and 2 scored by the Lancers. The ending of tonight's game was just something that you had to see to really get the hilarity of but I will do my best to describe it since I didn't get a video...
For those unfamiliar with hockey it is a tradition to announce at the end of every game the three stars or the players that performed the best during the game. Tonight the Hawks three stars were: our goalie, and two of the goal scorers. When they announced the goalie's name he came out on the ice to throw a shirt and as the crowd was cheering for him, he started to dance. Which I must say was the funniest thing I've seen at a game in a while. Then second star came out to throw his shirt and missed the glass that protects the fans in the audience from getting hit with pucks. The shirt ended up in the home teams bench area so he climbed over the barrier and threw the shirt backward over the glass which is very original and something I'd never seen in my four years going to Hawks games. Even though I may have missed the perfect video moments of the game, I managed to get some stills that I'll include and use to conclude this evenings blog.

                                                                      Until Next Time

Final score
