Go Oilers

Last night I had my first NHL experience. Amy had gotten 2 free tickets from work for her birthday and I was the lucky one she chose to take. Poor Chris, he was jealous! They played the St. Louis Blues and won in overtime! Quite an exciting game. In the first period the Oilers scored three goals and were leading 3-0. In the 2nd period the Blues scored 3 goals, and no one scored in the 3rd period, so into overtime it went. With only 5 seconds left of overtime before going to a shoot out the Oilers scored. It was great. Amy and I had such a good time. Our seats were pretty decent too, but we'll take anything free!! Now that I've had a taste, I definitly would love to be able to go to more games, we'll have to be on the lookout for cheap tickets!

I forgot to bring my camera which was disappointing, but here is me after the game back home. Good thing I have an Oilers t-shirt. Amy borrowed her roommates. So many people had Oilers gear it was great.

Free tickets are the best! Last night Julie and I went to the T-Wolves game for free (it wasn't near as exciting), but still lots of fun. Keep us updated on when you'll be going again...I'll see if we can catch you on the TV
