I Actually Went to a Hockey Game!

I was invitied by a friend to see a Houston Aeros hockey game last week. I was concerned because I had never been and was afraid I would not kno how to act, despite having been to countless baseball, football and basketball games. But I accepted the invitation, and I do not think my host was embarrassed by my behavior. I enjoyed the experience and was ready for a lot of things that took place, because of the input I received. I had asked, on another blog of mine , for suggestions on proper behavior at a hockey game. I was advised about proper menu, cheers, exits from the arena during play, and other pertinent information.

But I did not realize I needed dance lessons! Every break in the action had loud music playing and the real fans in the stands dancing to the tunes and getting their picture up on the screens in the rafters. I was ill prepared for that part of the event.

Houston won and I was surprised at the graceful athleticism of the skaters. I had expected raw power, but was impressed by the skills. I might actually go back sometime!
