Tonight me and a few of my classmates went to the Nashville Predators versus Detroit Red Wings hockey game….

Let’s see if I can remember everyone who was there: Racquel, Nadine, Charmel, LaDonna (rooting for the Red Wings), Melantha, Christian, Tifffany, Melani, Nick, Theo, Julian (same one from Saturday’s hockey game), Michelle Jamila, Andrea, and of course me…..did I forget anyone?….I’m sure I did….

Anyway me, Drea, and Mizzle got to the game in time to catch the first fight…..by the time we got some food and took our seats Detroit scored a goal….

That lead didn’t last long however…..for the first time in my 3 years of watching the Predators on and off they really looked good….I was worried for awhile in the first period when they had a two man advantage and couldn’t get a goal out of it….but later on in the same situation they got a BIG goal….

But the highlight was EASILY the number of in-game fights….when the Preds went up 4-2 there were 2 going on at once!!! It was pandemonium….all told there were at least 7 fights that I can think of off hand….then the P.A. system announced that if the Preds scored 5 goals everyone in attendence would get free tacos from Taco Bell!!!….you KNOW your boy got HYPED!

Sure enough Detroit pulled their goalie and the Preds scored that magical fifth goal on an empty netter….I will be cashing in my ticket stub tomorrow more than likely!

Then after the game as the excited Preds fans were celebrating their victory, a few of the more over-sealous ones were yelling over the balcony “You Suck!” at Detroit fans…well one fan in the concourse took offense and yelled out, “Hey FUCK YOU. You guys are FUCKING RUDE!!!” So one of the people with us yelled “Do something then!!!” really loudly….it was GREAT….all of a sudden I felt Drea tugging on me to get me away….I was hoping that there was going to be a drunken white hockey fan fight….I’ve never seen one of those….

Anyway fun was had by all….it was great….almost took my mind off the fact that I’m not in Atlanta right now!….almost
