Ovie puck

Teri and I went to watch game 4 of the first round of the playoffs at the official Caps viewing party. I've never been to the Union Jacks, didn't even know it was there, but the place is big. We figured it will fill up fast and got there as quickly as we could after work. And the place was empty. For a little bit at least. I was surprised how long it took but by game time every seat was taken and there was little room to stand near the bars. It was a sea of red. Teri and I were one of the few people not wearing red.

The audio absolutely sucked but we had seats, a view, and the crowd was pumped. They gave away raffle tickets and had prizes. The Washington Freedom were there but I didn't see them unfortunately. They gave away tickets to round two. Had we only known at the time how worthless they would be. I got lucky and won a puck signed by the Great 8 himself. Maybe some day I will display it next to the chipped game puck I got years ago.
