Hockey Game, Seawolves vs. Badgers

The UAA/Wisconsin hockey game last night was not as exciting as it could have been. Wisconsin and UAA have a rivalry, but since UAA has lost so many of its players, the game was very one-sided.

Once again, I had the joy of sitting next to another quite annoying person -- a student with an overenthusiastic cowbell. I had to put napkin pieces in my right ear to keep sane. It did not help that everyone also had "thunder sticks", which are big round sticks filled with air that they bang together. I always laugh when they all try to "thunder" in time with the music.

As far as the game went, we had four brand new people out there for UAA, and while they were capable of killing power plays for Wisconsin, they were also quite good at killing their own power plays as well.

The biggest excitement came when one of the players flicked a puck into the section beside ours. Unfortunately, it hit the head of a guy who was not paying attention, and it looks like it drew blood. He was walking alright and things, so I'm hoping he is OK.

When we left, the Seawolves were losing 4-1. Go here to hear the catchy Seawolf Fight Song.
