We picked up our tickets earlier in the afternoon, and headed down to try to beat the mad rush of people...
We didn't beat them. That was the line for tickets. It was pretty nutty...
Good thing we got ours earlier. They had the upper bowl open of US Bank Arena for tonight's game. I've never seen the upper bowl open before.
And as luck would have it, we got to sit in the upper bowl. Not a bad vantage point of the ice from up there. At all...
LET'S PLAY HOCKEY!
The Cyclones scored first and the Teddy Bear Toss, benefitting the Cincinnati Police Department, was in full effect...
Somehow this bear got caught on the netting behind the goal...
BACK TO HOCKEY!
At the first intermission that bear was still hanging on...
There were a bunch of people at the game...
And at the second intermission, there was chuck-a-puck...
There was a lot of throwing stuff tonight...
At the start of the third, it was Cyclones 3 Nailers 2...
Like I said, there were A LOT of people at the game!
And the Cyclones would go on to win the game 3-2 in front of a crowd of 12,585!!
And that bear was still hanging there on the net when we left. We'll be sure to look for him when we go to our next game on January 14th.
Traffic was just sillyy after the game. We were really glad we just had a short walk home.
And on our walk home, it was 61º! January 3rd and it's 61º!
The Cyclones games are so much fun. It's really hard to believe there are 12,000+ people at every home game. But we're kinda glad there aren't. We love our Cyclones hockey! :)
