Wings take on Coyotes tonight
Tonight I will be at the Joe watching the Wings take on the Phoenix Coyotes in the lower bowl. Rarely do I get to go to a game in the lower bowl for the ticket price (and not higher prices). My dad’s employee’s boyfriend has 4 lower bowl tickets (in section 125) and he couldn’t make it tonight so I’m going with my two brothers and dad (for around $300). When my dad and I went to the Canucks game on my birthday to sit on the glass, it was $550 for 2 tickets. Craziness.It should be fun. However, the last time the Wings played Phoenix at home, I was there and the Wings played awful and we lost so hopefully that won’t happen tonight.
There will be no photos from tonight’s game, but feel free to check out photos from the public practice and previous games (and a couple OHL Plymouth Whalers games) here.
For up to the date news, check out Abel to Yzerman, Kukla’s Korner and On the Wings.
Update (11pm): Why am I not surprised that the Wings lost this one. They played crappy the first period, pretty good in the second (so many close ones), and an eh third period. And since it happened on the opposite side of the rink, why in the world did Mowers take that penalty shot? I thought that they had the penalty shot opportunity because a Coyote’s stick was thrown in front of someone shooting, but I didn’t think that it was Mowers shooting (but I could be wrong). So please, someone, clarify this for me.
I enjoyed my time at the Joe, but it seemed that our seats were extremely cramped (even more so than I remember the upper bowl seats being). I’m 5′5″ yet my knees were touching the seat in front of me causing a great deal of pain (I’m having an allograft ACL revision in May). I just felt bad for my 6′0″ dad and my 6′2″ brother, they were even more cramped. Anyways, I’d gladly take those seats again and hopefully I’ll get a set for the playoffs before my May surgery when I’m in Cinci for 8 days (they better show the Wings games there assuming they are still in the playoffs or I’m gonna be one unhappy camper). Alright, well I got a long day of classes and studying tomorrow (since I went to tonight’s game) so good night everybody!
