Saturday afternoon hockey

About a week and a half ago, Pizza Pizza's Twitter had a random draw for Marlies tickets; your ticket in was to tell them your favourite Marlies player.

I always enter these Twitter contests without expecting to win, so you don't understand how excited I was when I got the tweet the next day that I had won!

*heart eyes emoji*
The tickets were originally for a Wednesday morning game, but because I wasn't able to attend (because work) and the Pizza Pizza people were nice enough, I got tickets to yesterday's game against the Hamilton Bulldogs instead. And wow, were the seats nice. We were one row behind the penalty box, and got to see the game officials and the announcer do their stuff, in addition to getting to see all the visitors to the penalty box.
I still don't know what that weird computer thing is though.
Opening face-off!
Nice try, Shea, nice try...
O captain, my captain!
I liked this line... even though they did nothing.
Too bad it's blurry, but it's still my favourite photo - Frattin reacts to his failed breakaway.
They had a lead...
The only downside about the seats were that it was hell to take pictures. Or maybe it's because I still suck at photography; but... the glass...
Don't mind the warpedness.
Even though the boys lost, it was still a really fun, frustrating, and exciting game to watch. Also, it was the very last regular season game between the Marlies and the Bulldogs since the Bulldogs organization will be moving to St. John's. So in sixty or so years, I could be like "You know, I was at the very last Marlies/Bulldogs game, and there was never a rivalry like that since...".

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!
