Season Opener!

This weekend, I went to the season opener ~ t'was fun!! There was a raft of activities and the Championship Cup was also there which my husband's team won last season! I know, a little corny that I get my picture taken with it alone *lol* but that's what the hubs worked so hard for last year :)

The digital show car kept playing clips from last season when the team won the cup.


I'm really early so there isn't that much people here yet but it got packed!


TVs inside the tent playing all kinds of clips ~ Notice the gentlemen sitting down wearing Adam's jersey #35 :)


Pardubice fans are Aaaaaamazing!!! Hats off to them!

The crowd is rolling in....
The hubs warming up (video)
The team is playing for a full house, so the atmosphere was unreal. The fans bring the best energy EVER.

During the game. Go #35 Go!!

Adam with his buddy Jeff Jillson #34!

At the end of the game, fans throw waffer bars on the ice. I asked about this and I guess it's a ritual!

Hurray!!! Pardubice won 3-1!!! (video)

The team saying "Thank You" to the fans! (Video)

Seeing a hockey game live is so much more fun than watching it on internet.
Happy I'm here this year!!!

As one of fans, have to say thank You for your kind words.

That bars what we throw on ice is ginger bread and yes, it's ritual, it has something to do with the thing that ginger bread is typical for Pardubice. They always put it in big plastic bags and then some children's home get it.

Nice photos and videos from outside the rink and the upper tier as well. You have captured the atmosphere at the rink very well! It was such a great season opener, I'm sure you must have enjoyed it.

I was so glad to see you inside the tent. It was really funny, thank you! :)

Season opener was awesome,we've been next to the car in the corner, good game, good atmosphere and fun :)

I ask you: why you've not been behind the home bench? I've thought there is a places for player's wives.

I hope you enjoyed the game and all around. And because of this blog, you will know everything about team and fans soon, i think :))

Have a nice day and sorry for my english (i'll try to improve it) :)
