Morning Woods ! Light agenda today so I get more much-needed range time. My groupings have been getting tighter thankfully, after a long winter of no practice.
Continued best wishes to all recovering Woods this morning also. Keep up the good work or else "we'll" come looking for you.

Pretty much about the same price range here. Right now the cheapest I see for Saturdays home game is $360 before taxes and fees

I split season tickets with somebody so we get first right of refusal to buy the tickets for each round. Face value for our tickets was $195 - I checked to see what similar seats were going for in my section and they were $500-$600 per seat

Then a beer is like 20 bucks

Took Gab down into the city last night to see the Ranger game, place was a zoo but expected for playoff hockey. Bummer they lost but the Rangers looked like they forgot how to skate.
kubbing =chasing the front wheel for general information

I don’t get the professional sports fan. Seems to me the ROI is pretty low to watch a game in person. I would much rather invest in a “ Man Cave” with a big screen tv, a small bar with a fully stocked beer fridge, maybe a card table or pool table. You could pay for it all with the cost of a couple play off tickets over a couple of seasons. You wouldn’t miss any of the big plays while standing in line for the pisser , to relieve yourself of a couple of those $20 beers, what am I missing .

I been to a few ahl games, and a few Fenway park ball games. Outside of ogling a few skirts. Your missing the sounds and a lot of what the camera thinks you want to see. But you are spot on in the regard of comfort and beverages. 12.75 for a 20 oz beer which turns flat cuz you want it to last or spilled by the sometimes sure footed drunk in front of you. Not to mention the crap shoot when it comes to who is the lucky gal or guy that you get to rub elbows with for three hours.
