Howie58 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Howdy:I will be at the game tomorrow (the 26th) versus the Panthers. Just got seats in Section 104; visitors shoot twice side. I am in row 14--probably wearing a 2012 Winter Classic hat! Stop by and say hello if you are there. It looks like there is pretty good attendance. Other than nose bleeds, seats were a bit scarce. I may go to the Applebee's nearby for a pre-game Merlot or other fermented stuff...the 9 dollar a glass Cavit crap they serve at the Arena makes me angry. If you see a gray temple dude at the bar--it's me. This is the only time I will see the boys in person this year, so I am looking forward to it. My Costa Rican native friend will go with me while her hubby does night shift...she gets a kick out of the madness--reminds her of "football." This will be a match of two decimated rosters. I really don't know what to expect, other than the fact we have had a tough time in Sunrise the past few years. Maybe Knuble will pretend he's 30 and score a game winner.

off_the_post Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Howie I do get of to the games in Sunrise or tampa every year - generally the Oct - Dec part of the schedule. Sadly I will have to miss this game. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 You picked a good game to go to!Alaska: Good to hear from you...hope all is well.I told my Costa Rican neighbor she brought good luck. There were plenty of Flyers fans in attendance. They were more vocal than the Panthers folks. I commented in the game thread on what I saw.

Howie58 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hi Howie-The only thing that matters is did you throw your lid on Reads hatty or take a sip of Merlow?Van: I was tempted to but it was a 2012 Winter Classic hat and didn't want to sacrifice it. Also--a couple that threw a hat out was escorted off by the boys in black...appears Sunshine Sports and Entertainment doesn't like the behavior...Go figure.

fan4ever Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Howie,Perhaps Sunshine Sports and Entertainment doesn't like the behavior when it's someone on the other team that scores the hattie and the hats fly. You have to wonder if would've been a Panther scoring the hattie if the same would apply. I don't think other cities like us very much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Well, I guess collecting hats means more than exterminating rats from their vantage.Howie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got booted for acknowledging a hattie? WTF???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howie58 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Van:I can only report what I saw. My friend attending with me felt it was that they did not throw the hat but instead dropped it on a Flyer by the glass. They were the only ones I saw escorted and my friend may be right but just the same, I didn't want to fart with the inevitable.

jammer2 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 If Panther management is tossing out fans for throwing out hats for hat trick, it's just another shred of evidence they don't belong in the league.....wtf! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
