@Ramlock great pictures! That must have been a wild ride for you and the wife sitting in the stands! Your going back tomorrow night right? Now your committed as the ROD Penguins fans good luck charm!
GO PENS :yay:
I joked to my wife that exact thing....might as well stay and go to Game 2!!!
What an experience.
The energy at the building before the game was wonderful....fans everywhere, all in black and gold.
Beer sellers in the plazas outside, NBC sports and NHL Network set ups too.
Catherine Tappen is a total babe!
We'd never been to Pittsburgh before, so we had to buy gear for ourselves, family and friends.
Then up to our seats that I bought on Ticketexchange. Great seats, low in the upper bowl in the attack zone end; right directly above the net where the Pens scored their goals in the 1st and 3rd.
71 is just a beast; Malkin is having an incredible playoff run. But his defensive play has been stellar as he always minds his responsibilities and is forever taking it away and starting the rush back up ice. You really see that in person.
What can you say about Crosby that hasn't already been said?
He's world class and one of the best all-time, period.
What's amazing is how they have integrated Sheary and Guentzel and Rowney and Wilson....all these kids. The Penguins look like they'll be good for years.
I think the lull in the 2nd period
was partially due to the youth and how deep down the roster that the Pens have had to go.
With that said, the leaders took back over in the 3rd. Phil Kessel is a competitive booger!
Guentzel's goal led to an eruption in the arena.
We flew back to Little Rock today so I'll be cheering from my couch on Wednesday but I won't miss it.
When the game ended, the PA played Mike Lange -
"Ladies and Gentlmen, Elvis has just left the building"
A sports bucket list item checked off and big thanks to Mrs. Ramlock!
Go Pens!
