Spending the evening at Party Town

The Waterloo Black Hawks play hockey at Young Arena and one of their traditions is to blast Glenn Fry's Party Town over the public address system as the crowd keeps rhythem with their cowbells. This evening, Linda and I brought Ashley and Travis to the game. Buying tickets so late limited our seat selection but it turned out to be quite an evening. We were down near the glass way down in a corner so we had an excellent view of one goal and not so great of the other.

The people watching turned out to be as memorable as the game. The guy next to me would turn to me for a high five after every Black Hawks goal ... and there were several of those. A family of four or five was sitting / standing along the glass and one of the boys begged his mom for a slice of pizza; she got popcorn for him. When she told him to clean a some kernals he'd spilled, he said "Wouldn't have spilled pizza..."

It was quite an evening.
