Spring Break 2010: The Stay-cation / Part 1: The Hockey Game

This year, we decided to stay around home during spring break and do things we've talked about doing, but never did.

Part 1: Go see a hockey game. We wanted to go see the Wild play the Flames, but tickets were $96 each. Instead, we went to see the Women's NCAA "Frozen Four" Ice Hockey Championship, where three tickets that were on center ice and four rows behind the bench were $84 (total).

Here's our view of center ice during warm ups.


Here's how close we were to the UM-Duluth bench.


Here we are! We ended up sitting by a lot of current and former women's Olympic hockey super stars. Julie Chu sat right behind us and gave us pointers throughout the game.


The game was the University of Minnesota - Duluth versus Cornell. In the end, the game went to triple over time. UMD had a power play goal with 30 seconds to go the third over time to win!



Love,
Ben and Cameron
