It had been a while since I’d been to a hockey game. Decided it was time to take in a Thrashers game at Philips Arena. Got a couple of $10 seats way up in the nosebleed section. Surprisingly, the view wasn’t bad at all. Hey, at least we could see the puck flying around, so I can’t complain.

Frankly, it would have been more fun if the Thrashers didn’t get shut out by Toronto.

At least there was sumo hockey!
