Stars/Red Wings: MEETUP

Guess what?

The Stars are opening Victory Park to the fans to watch all games on the big screens outside the AAC.   Fans are invited to bring blankets and lawn chairs, per The Almighty And Glorious Lord Of The Sweater Vest, Mike Heika.

I can tell you that Cat, Jen & I will be there on Saturday, May 10th at the AAC, and I figured — hey, there’s a lot of you out there who live in Dallas who we know via the magic that is blogging.

Basically, if you’d like to meet up, it would be a real pleasure to have a lot of the like-minded fans around; I’m going to try and work out details if, you know, anyone wants to come hang out with us.

If you’d like to meet up, please drop me (Caitlin) an e-mail at hockeycoma@gmail.com.   It would be nice to see you there!

That sounds like so much fun. Sadly I won’t be done with finals until Monday :(

Hope you guys have a blast!

So sorry, Amy, wish you could come.

Ladies, I found this in the comments on Heika. It’s from Stars Marketing Dept.

Thanks for your email. Coolers, food and beverages will not be allowed on the Plaza as concessions will be available for purchase. We do encourage people to bring their own chairs and/or blankets.

I’m bummed, gonna have to rethink my plans. Do an actual tailgate? But still, no mojitos during the game. :(

Amy, I’m sorry that you can’t come - we’ll be thinking of you!

Myra, I just saw that - that is pretty disappointing. You’d think they’d encourage it how the Pens are doing at Mellon Arena….

I’d love to ladies, but May 10th is fishing opener, so I’ll be out on the lake at 4:30 AM and passed out cold by 8 PM.

Have fun!

I hope you guys have tons of fun! Cheer them on for me. I’ll be cheering really loud from my dorm room, but you’ll be a lot closer :)

Are any of you planning on going to any of the games in Dallas?

Ooh, mojitos. I know what I’m drinkin’ before the game on Saturday.

Amy - As long as you’re cheering, it doesn’t matter where you are! I like to think that my cheers from my apartment can still be heard…by people other than my neighbors.

Kirsten - let me know how the fishing opener goes, man!

I will. I’m stoked, it should be good…if the ice is out, which it might not be on some of my favorite lakes.

I just came across your blog here this month when looking for some Playoff information. I have to say it’s awesome.

We, me and some of the boys, may be out there Saturday as well.

//mind if I give a shout-out link on my blog?

Not at all! And I can’t take any of the credit - Cat does all the heavy lifting around here!

Not all of it! 99% of the funny comes from Caitlin, and that pretty graphic up top would not be there if it were not for Jenlo. Team effort, friends, team effort. I just come here and either bitch or rave about the Stars.

Ugh, forgot to mention, my dental surgery got rescheduled for tomorrow morning at 9. Doc says I’ll be okay to go (as long as I don’t drive), I just have to be careful or whatever. No beer or arena food for me, which will suck if the Stars play like they did in game one.

Okay, yay! You can go! Do you want me to come pick you up? Poor Cat. I’m so sorry. DENTISTS ARE EVIL!

(Psst, text me after your dental stuff’s done so I know you’re okay. :/)

My dentist isn’t the evilest, but, being a dentist, I do believe he’s a bit of a sadist. If you could pick me up that’d be rad - Doc doesn’t want me driving at all on Saturday.

I’ll text you when I get out of surgery - should be around 11 or so? I’m probably going to go home and sleep after that, lol

props shall be given then! awesome.

Sadly, I can’t make it out to play today as I am getting a flat fixed and apartment hunting in the HEB-hood. But rest-assured I will be out watching the game somewheres in full Stars gear!
