Wings vs Hawks Mini Pregame

I think this says it all...

The Big Chill

I know I'm really behind in posting and this is kind of off track, but how could you go to this event and not want to post about it? I'll save my Spartan friends the pain of a recap (5-0, Go Blue! State's coaches did have much better hats though, very Babcockian) since I don't do those anyways and stick to the pictures. My little brother and I were in row 90 of the end zone closest to the Michigan bench. Something like that... we were surrounded by drunks, one of whom kept harassing the girl next to me because she'd never seen porn and yet still called herself a college student and another one picked up my hat and threw it into the crowd (still angry about that... luckily a nice State fan took pity on me after I pleaded with him and Jeffy death stared him into tossing it back to me) but it was still one of the coolest hockey experiences of my life.

For those of you who haven't seen it yet, here's what the stadium looked like.

The nice, not drunk guy two rows behind us offered to take a picture of us in front of the field...

Michigan skating out shortly after fireworks went off around the ice

And the Spartans skating out, sans fireworks...

Both teams, lining up before the game.

And some shots from the game. Pretty sure almost every shot has the same line on the ice for U of M, not sure how that worked out...

In the corner...

And shaking hands after the game...

And finally, my favorite goalie ever. Or at least of the Big Chill :)
