The Cup
Disclaimer: I know that everbody who reads this will have no idea and/or no interest in the subject at all. However, I cannot keep this silent. I have to shout it from the blogtops.
Well I can mark another life long goal off of my list since moving to Austin. The first one was to see the Pixies in concert, which happened thanks to Loren. And on Saturday I saw The Cup. The one and only. The Stanley Cup. The holy grail of hockey. The one thing that all thirty NHL teams work for every single year, and I saw it. I touched it. Hell I kissed the damn thing. Most of you probably think i'm crazy, but I don't care. For any hockey fan this is a dream come true. Also, if my sources are correct, the oldest sports trophy ever. It started in 1892 There are still names engraved on there from the 1920's. I kinda feel like I defiled it now that I think about it. oh well.
On top of that I got to see two kick ass hockey games. Live. Not on tv or anything. ahhhh. I'm happy. At least for a few days.
