I had the honor of going to my FIRST hockey game last Thursday and decided to share a bit of my experience. I didn't understand half of what was going on, but I loved it!!
1. It's Cold In There!
Seriously, dress warmly. Your feet will be super cold and so will your face! I suggest warm socks and a beanie as well!
2. Hockey Fans Are LOUD.
You will hear numerous "You Suck!" chants and see Bam Bam sticks clanking together all over the place. It's all part of the experience.
3. You Will Ask Your Fellow Hockey Fans Lots Of Questions.
By the end of the night, your friends may be tired of telling you what "icing" is or explaining why someone got 10 minutes in the box. Be sure to go with patient people.
4. Nachos Are A Must.
The game is long and you're bound to get hungry.
5. Hockey Fans Are Friendly.
Even if they aren't rooting for the same team as you, you guys are bound to have a good conversation.
6. The Goal Of The Entire Game Is To Make It On The Jumbotron.
If you didn't, what are you doing with your life?
