05/22/2003 Archived Entry: "Hockey Fever"

I watched my first hockey game last night! I’m not really a hockey fan, nor a sports fan in general; but there is a lot more excitement to be had when watching your home team playing in a game that will the difference between going to the finals or not.

Playoff games have a real weight to them because each game, each point is important. Watching the game in a rowdy environment with people cheering and jeering at every little thing also made the experience really fun!

Sadly, I had to leave before the overtime period started, but I heard the results over the radio. I’m looking forward to Game Seven, Friday! Go Sens Go!

Watpub tonight!

what's up for game 7 tonight though? i know a few ottawa/kanata-ites (is that the proper term?) who are rather looking forward to the game ... i don't know though ... i just don't have a good feeling about this one

(although, my feelings have been known to be wrong before)
