Next Friday night, it's on.

Bubble Hockey at the Ralph!

Dean Blais vs. Doug Wood

Who do you like?

This Wood guy is kind of an unknown... :ohmy:

But I gotta go with the Blaiser.

Is the the real Blaiser or are you going with a mini-Blais? I'm going with Wooger taking revenge on the guy who basically pushed him out of the job. Hopefully he fires out a jersey pop or two.

Won't matter. Blaiser will have the glove flash going. Woog will be too distracted. :)

I'm hoping Blais is down by 3 midway through the third and Woog calls a time out to quiet the crowd..

I have to ask... is this really happening? If so, well done by the REA staff. (or to whomever the credit belongs)

If not, shoulda woulda coulda, and fun thread anyway.

Is there any way to pull the goalie in bubble hockey?

If one of Blais' freshmen defensemen takes a penalty, can he just skate right out of the bubble?

they said on the radio -it's at 6:30 on Friday

Doors open at 6:00 on Friday night. The grudge match will be at center ice at 6:30. They are going to have at least 1 camera on the game and play by play so you can sit in your regular seat and watch the action on the big screens.

Also, $2 green beer for 30 minutes after the doors open, to get properly tuned for the bubble action. Wooger will likely down at least $20 worth before the action begins.

This is kind of off topic, but does anyone remember the old U.S.A vs. U.S.S.R bubble hockey game? The Circus arcade in Grand Forks used to have one and there is one in Dickinson at the local community center/restaurant/bowling alley. If your opponent hogs the puck behind the net for too long, there is this button you can push up to three times that makes booing noises. It's just a classic, classic piece of Cold War/Sports memorobilia. I'd like to get a hold of one of those as a collectors item/toy.

I remember when table hockey was played with no bubble and a puck that featured a heavy ball bearing. That baby could knock out a tooth when it left the rink! :lol:

Here's everything you'd ever want to know about Chexx hockey.

I actually have one of the Chexx tables with USA vs. USSR. I've been toying with the idea of getting rid of it. If you are serious, drop me a PM.
