The "kissing cam" was a big hit as well. Especially when it landed on two other Moorhead hockey parents in the crowd that we all knew. We howled at the fun being had getting people to kiss on camera for everyone to cheer for.
Colton felt so included and was enthralled with watching his "coach" score both goals of the game in a big win for the Force. Andrew Taranto, #20 in dark blue down below, is living with Colton's hockey coach. Andrew comes in his free time to help coach Colton's practice. Colton was pretty impressed and fought for his front row seat.
Minutes before the end of our game there was a knock at the door. The Fargo Force mascot came inside for an autograph/photograph session. Kid bobble was a huge hit with the kids. It was a truly fantastic night. Thanks Fullmer family, thanks Connelly family, and thanks RDO! It was a "suite" time!

We all loved the light blue jersey's of the Indiana Ice.
Checking out the beverage selection in the suite. There was something for everyone :)

"On the edge of your seat hockey... our favorite kind!"

ReplyDeleteWe got our share of hockey this weekend to be sure :) I saw Thad with Olivia yesterday at lessons in the morning and he said she was better.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great time, and a great opportunity, too...
ReplyDeleteI have to tell you, I was flipping through channels this afternoon and landed on Pittsburgh playing hockey (they were losing). I think it would be fun to watch if I understood it at all. But I paused on it for awhile thinking, "This would be so much more fun if Nolan and Colton were here." :)
Oh my gosh, what fun! Looks like you guys had a fantastic time!
ReplyDeleteGitz, if the Penguins were winning, it would be fun to have Nolan around, if they were losing, ahhhh not so much :) Poor Nolan has not learned the art of losing gracefully and goes into a tailspin whenever some team he loves, is losing. Colton, on the other hand, would love it no matter what! :)
ReplyDeleteTippa, it really was fun, even if you aren't a hockey fan it wouldn't matter in this case, I assure you there is so much entertainment of all kinds!
