How not to go to a flyers game

So Wednesday one of Eric's friends at the dental school had a patient that had offered her some free tickets to the Flyers/ Red Wings game that night and she was trying to get a group together to go. Well of course Eric being a big red wings fan jumped at the chance. So she said she'd call when she had all the details.

At about 5:20 she called and said she hadn't gotten anyone else to go, but if we were still interested she would give Eric's number to the patient and we could get with him to get the tickets. He called at 5:45 and said he would be in Conshohocken in half an hour so we could get the tickets there.

Well according to google maps we could take an alternative route and get there in 25 minutes, haha! We left at at 6 and got there at 6:40, and we still had to take Lilli over to a babysitter (Thanks Mike and Anne!!) and get to the subway and get down there. And the game started at 7.

Fortunately Caralee is awesome :) and knows her way around, (better then google maps!) so we got back in about 20-25 minutes. Raced over to the subway, and surprise, the special stopped running at 6:15, and the express at 7. So we got on the local which stops on all 22 stations on the broad street line. It took FOREVER!! ahhh

So we finally made it to the game at 8, figuring that we would get maybe the last period of the game. But fortunately they were only a few minutes into the second period. So we got about 2/3 of the game in, which was nice considering all the running we had to do to get there. But it was free, so all worth it right?!

Gotta love the self pics.


Score!!


Carmen enjoyed herself immensely...


Hmmm

Yay! I love hockey. Unfortunately there were no good fights, darn pre season game. They were taking it way to easy. I guess we're just going to have to go to another game...
