Okay, so it's time to make some plans. Sure, I could use the "official" thread, but what's the point, it all happens here anyhow. Don't want the thread police to get me for talking hockey in more than one place.
Saturday plans. Gametime is 7:05p for the big match between the #7 Eagles and the #14 Catamounts. Don't know if you're "show up early to see warm-ups" type people, but I'm cool with that, then there would be time to check out the arena (not that it would take more than 7 minutes), buy some popcorn, load up on paraphenalia at the souvenir stand, etc.
Prior to the game, there's things to do and see in BTV.
Church Street, the waterfront (nice and cold), etc. I'm sure we can find somewhere for food, there are about 95,423 restaurants in the Burlington area, including a couple dozen right around Church Street.
Johnny Weatherservice's current forecast for Saturday:
Saturday: A chance of snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 22. Chance of precipitation is 40%.
Saturday Night: A slight chance of snow showers. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 6. Chance of precipitation is 20%.
So come on up whenever you'd like, just let me know when so I can be sure to have all the bodies stashed by the time you show up.
I'm told that the xbox 360 is backwards compatible with xbox games, but only if you have the optional hard-drive. I don't have the hard-drive, I just have a little memory stick thingie for saving games. Doesn't matter anyhow, I got NHL '07 for xmas!
FYI, the Friday night UVM game is on CSTV, if you happen to get that channel.
I have an autographed photo of Yvon Barrette (the actor who played goalie Denis Lemieux) of the scene where he's on the phone demanding a trade. He signed it "trade me right f***ing now! Yvon Barrette / Denis Lemieux".
