civilized ku # 377 ~ pre-game beer

Pre-game warmup ~ Bell Centre - Montreal, CA• click to embiggen
While the Pens and Habs go through their pre-game warmups, the wife enjoys a pre-game warmup beer.

Great seats. Lousy game. The Pens played like they hadn't played in 4 days, which, in fact they hadn't. The seats, which are season ticket seats owned by one of the wife's client's father, are great. Front row balcony near the corner where the Pens shoot twice is about as good as it gets for me.

If we were to buy season tickets, these are the ones I would want. While the action is not as in-your-face as it would be closer to the ice, the flow of the game and, as a bonus, the sound of the players yakking and squawking and "expressing" themselves is quite readily discernible.

In any event, despite the Pens rather pathetic performance, attending a hockey game in Montreal is always a treat.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who prefers those seats: would be my choice, too, if I lived in a hockey town.
