MafiaMan Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 I figured it was about time to start talking about this year's Hoggsbreath event. We're looking at Saturday, March 19th this year, from about 10:30 am to 1:00 pm (or however long folks want to stay). I'm adding a new wrinkle this year...let's see how this turns out, shall we? 1 Quote

Mafiaman, All I'm going to say is that you and I must have different definitions of the word friends. I mean, How do you decorate the sign when their season will be over and ours will be just getting started? Quote

CMSioux Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 I'm in. Why don't we rotate and invite a different Big 10 team's fans every year? With a caveat that we are looking for hockey fans that are interested in talking hockey not smack. Quote

southpaw Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I'll be working the tournament once again. I'll have to check the schedule to see if I can get away for a couple hours. It was a good time when I was there in 2014. Quote

I just got the regular tickets not the collector ones. I also got the GA tickets, if that matters on shipping??? Quote
sprig Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 That helps, mine are renewal tickets from the last two years so would guess they'll arrive this week or next. Quote

Godsmack Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 We will be there! Also, I had ordered 4 tickets but my parents can't go (similar to my predicament with the DU series) so if anyone needs two tickets for the Frozen Faceoff, let me know. Oh, I voted "yes" BTW. I used to date a Gopher hockey fan and she and her family were really nice so they can't all be too bad. Plus, think of the fun stories we all could share regarding UND/Minn hockey?!?! Quote
MafiaMan Posted February 13, 2016 Author Posted February 13, 2016 We're barely a month away from this gig so it's time to start the head count so I can give the Hogg some numbers and their staff can be prepared: Attendance list as of 2/13/16: MafiaMan + 2-3 I usually have plenty of door prizes and give-aways for attendees - if you would like to contribute something to the cause this year, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you! Quote
