That is AWESOME.

Saw the wings play the bluejackets some years ago. Hull hit the glass right in front of my face.

Spexxvet · 12-10-2010, 11:09 AM

Cool, Monster. I'm jealous.

monster · 12-10-2010, 12:15 PM

Ugh. Current forecast is 50% chance of sleet.

monster · 12-11-2010, 07:19 PM

It was totally AWESOME!

just got back, now waiting for the guests for Hebe's sleepover 13th birthday party, but man, what a game. A world record 113,411 attendance, a 5-0 shutout, fireworks after every goal, stealth bomber fly-by during the national anthem, awesome view..... and a choreographed firework display at the end. The atmosphere was fantastic -the marching band, the mexican waves, the chants, the cheers..... excellent, excellent. and no rain. Got a bit cold by the end, but I can live with that.

What is a Mexican Wave?

monster · 12-11-2010, 08:40 PM

oh probablty a brit term. a crowd wave. were fans stand up in sequence so it looks like a wave.....

Clodfobble · 12-11-2010, 10:35 PM

Oh, okay. We just call that "the wave." At least in the South; maybe up north where they don't have so many Mexicans, they call it the Mexican wave, I dunno.

Beest suggested that maybe it's an American Continent thing that made it to the UK via soccer and therefore via South America because the north isn't into soccer so much....
