we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to go to game four in chicago when we found some reduced playoff tickets online. we were a bit apprehensive about getting heckled, but we were definitely excited about attending a canucks playoff game!
in front of the michael jordan statue at the united center… entering enemy territory.
section 324, row 10.
playoff towels. i must say though, that chicago did not have very much towel power. go vancouver!
i think we saw a couple of canuck jerseys out there, otherwise it was all black and red. we had to laugh listening to some of the “interesting” four-letter word chants by those chicago fans. by the end of the night, we received a bit of heckling but otherwise we left unscathed. the end of the game was obviously disappointing with vancouver losing their lead and then in OT, but onwards canucks! win the cup!

so glad you guys got to go to a game! i was just saying to kimu that i hoped u guys would get a chance to go! how awesome! and romantic, you and 18,000 others.
yes, really romantic…especially with the extremely loud (“LET’S GO HAWKS!”) and somewhat drunk fan behind us. haha!
I was really hoping that the Canucks would win just to see what they would do to us if that happened… a friend of mine from Minnesota said that growing up as a North Stars fan, the Minnesota visitors in the stands during Blackhawks games would apparently get into some serious altercations. But maybe they would have mercy on us kind-hearted Canadians.
