Please reply to this thread or send me a pm if you have any other questions about the event. Here's to hockey! Dave

Thanks for the interest! It's a shared event between SiouxSports.com and the Center Ice Club from St. Cloud State. Simply put, it's people getting together to celebrate the great sport of hockey. We talk about the rivalry, the traveling trophy, and the games. We give away door prizes, and everybody goes away happy. Oh, and it's free! I'd love to hear from others of you who have been to one of these events in Grand Forks or St. Cloud to get other perspectives on the fan socials. See you Saturday! Dave

+1. Superstition is bad luck. Dave

I've always said there are different levels of devotion: I almost always find that I know more about my team than "other team's fan" knows about their team. I usually find that I know more about "other fan"'s team than they know about my team. What's alarming is to find "fans" who don't know as much about their team as I know about their team. Sometimes when this happens, the excuses range from "I'm a fan of lots of teams" to "I'm a fan, but I don't have time to know every little thing about my team". To me, fan = fanatic. If you don't have that level of devotion, call yourself an enthusiast. 8-) Dave
