I’m hopped up on sugar! Mikes Pastries for breakfast; Boston Cream Pie Eclair, Rum Cake, Pistachio Cannoli. Not ALL just for me, split with hubby. We didn’t even start the rum cake, saving that for later.

We’re doing the aquarium, then hitting Harbor Brewery. Head to game early so we can walk the concourse, I love seeing all the different team gear. I’m getting really jacked up and not just because of the sugar?

Note: Due to inflation dirty deeds will no longer be done dirt cheap.

And we have a flock of Whioux Fans with a couple of them in their Holy Cross jerseys.

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.

Did you give them your heart felt condolences on neither of their two favorite teams making the frozen four? :D

I'd ask them something along the lines of how a school with a Bison for a mascot got the name Whioux.

On the Boston accent thing I was working with a guy a few years ago here in Minneapolis that had a wicked Boston accent. I asked him how long he'd been living in MN and he said over 50 years.

Bill Burr does my favorite Boston accent. Love his delivery.

Check out Gary The BBQ Chef on TikTok or YouTube too, he is very similar.

It’s not a Frozen Four without stuff like this:

Denver 2009 we had to leave our hotel due to a guy in one of the rooms with a gun - swat team came and evacuated us. We forgot our tickets to the game and they were nice enough to go get them for us.

Pittsburgh 2013 the power was out in the area we stayed at when we arrived.

Boston 2015 our hotel employees were outside picketing.

Tampa 2016 we were eating at a restaurant, across the street they were doing some construction, a welder lit the roof on fire and and a historic nightclub burned down and the area had to be evacuated.

Boston 2022 there’s a construction accident across from our hotel.

We’ve come to expect chaos when we come to the Frozen four. ?

Lol, that has definitely made it worse but this goes back to the 01-02 season before kids were even a thought! I didn’t do anything with anyone on Fri/Sat nights until 10pm, I have never watched a Gopher game at a bar. My girlfriends weren’t allowed to ask questions until a commercial break or period break (that’s if I let them watch with me). Thankfully the Gophers have had some struggle years where I am not that into it and have been able to come out of that pattern, but tonight…it will just be me and my son!

Well since [mention]Cowgirl[/mention] and [mention]Kelly Red[/mention] both wear cowgirl hats I am guessing when they met it was tip of the hats and an exchange of Howdy Partner and I don't see much of your kind around these parts. Wink
