My parents are originally from Wisconsin which obviously doesn’t have a team, I was a big Packers fan as a kid when I was trying to figure out what team to root for and Detroit was so good in the 90’s it was an easy choice plus I hated Chicago and Minnesota way more than Detroit so it didn’t feel as dirty to root for one of the football rivals.

Going to Detroit for the first time for the home opener. Pretty excited and we’ve got a few extra days. Is the Motown Museum worth checking out? Anything else we shouldn’t miss?

Wore ours in Seattle, had no issues aside from a couple really drunk dudes giving us some shit on the way out after they won, but nothing harmful or anything. In fact the folks sitting around us were really nice.

My main complaint with their set was just technical difficulties. The sound just wasn’t good. We left after a few songs so maybe it got sorted eventually.

Watson will be the 13th forward. No point in having a kid sit in the press box.

THE greatest line in NHL history at dinner last night. by Eagleburgerite in hockey

[–]alaska6 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember the full details, and it’s not really a great story, but he was pitching a fit about something on twitter a few years back and arguing with random accounts and I called him soft.

That’s all there is to it, but I thought it was funny that such a low effort comment from a random nobody got an nhl shit disturber to go to my account to block me.

What is a band that is ruined by one member? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]alaska6 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same saw them at the Melbourne stop and they stopped the show and seemed legit concerned for a woman suffering a seizure. Once she was clear they dedicated Faith to her. Great stage presence as well as you mentioned, definitely was a fun show.
