Admirals Game with Dave Foley

A long while back, my good friend Dave Foley invited me to an Admirals game. His Uncle Paul works for the ticketing department, and was able to get us free tickets. So we went, and had a great time. We saw a good number of fights, cause after all, what is hockey without violence? Dave was certainly excited.

Judging from his expression, Dave was pleased with the seat selection Uncle Paul had bestowed upon us. Row W, as I was later told, is where all the "cool" people sit. How Dave and I got those seats, we'll never know...

We took some time in between the 1st and 2nd period to visit Uncle Paul and to thank for for the free tickets. I thanked him for his generosity, and he called me "Big Shooter". Big Shooter is a nickname that Dave calls people, and Uncle Paul obviously picked up on Dave's modern day lingo. Uncle Paul then took time out of his busy schedule to sit and chat with us while the conclusive 3rd period was underway.

Just a soon as it started, the game was over, so we had no choice but to leave the Bradley center. We took a moment on the stars as well as outside to pause and reflect upon the day's happenings.
