My husband and I live in the northeastern section of the country, and we’re large hockey fans.
All of us seldom buy tickets to the games, preferring to watch on cable.
The weather in our local area is always nasty while the two of us were in the majority of the hockey season. The outside temperature drops below cold and occasionally as low as drawback twenty-five degrees. Heading to the stadium means the two of us need to bundle up in Winter boots, sweaters and heavy coats. All of us first spend around twenty hours brushing snow off the car, scraping ice off the windshield and running the defrost and heater. Driving to the rink can be somewhat hazardous due to icy roads and blizzard conditions. Once the two of us park the car, the two of us are forced to walk through the nasty weather before finally getting inside. Even with a heating system running, the stadium is always cold cold. If the two of us watch from home, the two of us have straight-forward access to lavatorys, popcorn and the thermostat. All of us can adjust the temperature so that we’re perfectly comfortable, however last year, our husband and I visited our son, who moved down south. As a surprise, our child took us to a professional hockey game. All of us dressed in shorts and sandals and ran the a/c in the car. I brought a coat with me, thinking the stadium would be cold. The rink was absolutely running the a/c, trying to keep the site pleasantly cool and maintain the integrity of the ice. All of us were perfectly comfortable watching the game in shorts and T-shirts. Attending a hockey game down south was a much odd experience than in the north.
