I did not grow up in a sports house. My Dad wasn't the guy planted in his recliner every Sunday, screaming at the TV. My mistake husband wasn't much of a sports nut, my good husband wasn't when we got married either. He was more of a baseball fan and we liked going to games, they were fun and all but, you know, it's just baseball.
In 2002 he took me to a Hockey game, what was that warm and tingly feeling? My heart beat faster and I found myself sitting on the edge of my seat. YES!!! HOCKEY!!!! I get it now, I know why guys are crazy over their games, I just had to find mine.
Now keep in mind, I am a very non-violent, peace loving woman, I study Buddhism for Pete's sake! But there is a complete metamorphesis when I watch a hockey game. I get super excited, I scream things like REF YOU SUCK!!, You skate like my Aunt Tillie!, Start the bus LOSERS!, I pretty much lose my mind. Ohhh and the fights, I am seriously disappointed if there are no fights, what the hell is that? That's not a game! I want to see these guys beat the crap out of each other! The goons are my favorite players.
I had the privilege of being at one of the best Hockey fights, it was just a few weeks ago. The players were fighting, the goalies were fighting, even the coaches were fighting...it was AWESOME!!
We go to games every chance we get and if we can't go we're watching them on TV. I still get that warm and fuzzy feeling...just like my first time.
My name is Beatlemama and I am a Hockey Fanatic.
