Went to see the Wings last Friday...gotta say I was blown away by the LCA. This facility has no bad seats and is first class...they did a helluva job. The upper level seats are a tight fit for those of us over 6 feet (leg room wise).
They put on a great pregame show there and it's just a great game environment.

Heading there next Thursday for the first time. Not saying I'm old but it's a Guns N Roses concert since I didn't make it to one of theirs back in the day. Looking forward to seeing how it looks.
One of my best friends was the project manager on that and he was freaking out about it not being ready leading up to it. He said he had nightmares about condensation on the floor for a Pistons game and them all slipping and sliding. Haha. I guess it all worked out though.

Saw McCartney at LCA and came away totally impressed. I now want to get the tour of the facility and see the full ice rink in the sub-basement.

getting gil perrault's autograph at the olympia. for the younger hockey fans here, that was like, 45 yrs ago. he was injured and didn't play that night. the olympia was the coolest venue for hockey with only the montreal forum, maple leaf gardens, and possibly the boston gardens in the same league. so much history.
notice the boards and ice... no [expletive] ads except for the public service announcement of 'united way'
here's one with uncle gordie at the olympia. notice everyone is kind of dressed up even in this photo which says its from 1971

juniors, at least in america. when i got to michigan i still remember joey milburn taking his teeth out before practice at yost. his locker was next to mine. i wanted to hear the stories about how he lost each tooth. he would indulge me.

Listening to the Wings/watching the World Series. Marquette got pounded by hurricane-like weather today. How's the weather looking where you are Xtra?

and some signif wind but no damage. now 35 degrees and raining. very glad to have large 4WD van to drive when our unpaved country roads get soaked. was downstate first thing this morning and the high was ~46 degrees. after two extra months of summer, fall is finally here. time to start grouse hunting now that the leaves are getting off the trees.
saw that MQT was in a non-stop swirling rain pattern all day. just talked to a buddy up there. love the UP, always will.
EDIT: mgowife just showed me video of the bonehead that got swept off presque isle park rocks today. 2 others swept in and still looking for them - they are dead no doubt. wild looking lake superior waves. big water!

the girlfriend showed me that video as well! Presque Isle was closed all day so those people really must have been trying to get out there.

That second photo in the OP's post....that might have been about what I had in the second half of the game this past Saturday. I can't recall precisely how much it might have been for various reasons.

They're playing the Dodgers in the World Series, not the Cubs. I think you're confused.

in 4. Sweep.

I'll tell you what. If they beat Verlander tomorrow night, this thing is going to be over quickly.

Not surprising, most people here have connections to Tiger baseball that are stronger than their connections to M baseball and Verlander was one of the most prominent and well-liked Tigers.
edit: How in the hell is this controversial?
