Winter Classic Open Thread
Winter Classic starting up soon in the Big House on NBC
On first glance, certainly looks like they're going to crush our record. There were some gaps in the upper bowl for the Big Chill, none that I see so far today
Puck drop upcoming

Wish I could be in attendance.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:07 PM ^
Glad to see the students got there early!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:08 PM ^
THE STUDENT SECTION IS FULL
January 1st, 2014 at 1:08 PM ^
Man that looks freaking awesome! Kinda wish I would have went, but sitting here in my living room watching a bunch of bowl games and the Wings isn't bad either.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:09 PM ^
My feed for fhe game is seriously messed up. Is NBC having an issue or is it just DirecTV?
January 1st, 2014 at 1:10 PM ^
Must be DTV
January 1st, 2014 at 3:43 PM ^
Looks like it was my local NBC that was messed up. They got it fixed right before they dropped the puck. Must have been a bad satellite uplink of some sort.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:09 PM ^
Hey look! Our student section is full before the start of the game
January 1st, 2014 at 1:11 PM ^
I think Mike Milbury just smacked one of the kids he was skating with.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:12 PM ^
Hopefully all this attention in AA pays off for the University too. I like all of the reminders they're showing of how awesome the Big House is.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:12 PM ^
gorgeous in the Big House today! Happy 2014!!!!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:13 PM ^
What's with all the red in the crowd??? Dammit Dave Brandon! Rabble rabble rabble!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:15 PM ^
Who needs college bowl games when hockey is on, eh? Let's go Red Wings!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:16 PM ^
This is amazing. Go Wings!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:18 PM ^
Go Wings
January 1st, 2014 at 1:18 PM ^
Been watching the pre-game stuff on NHL.com and it's nice to see the reactions of these guys.
I had no idea Toronto's JVR went to Pioneer. Pretty cool.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:20 PM ^
Look at the goalie twitching like that
I remember seeing that tradition in 24/7 episode 1
January 1st, 2014 at 1:21 PM ^
I said at the beginning of the fall that it was dumb to have the game in A2 on New Year's Day because we all would be paying attention to Michigan's bowl game. Whelp.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:21 PM ^
Let's Go Red Wings!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:23 PM ^
The sweaters
January 1st, 2014 at 1:23 PM ^
Why the fuck do we need a concert before the game?
January 1st, 2014 at 1:24 PM ^
Never understood that, I hate it.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:25 PM ^
Boom - lets ruin it with something really stupid and for what? The kids? I think the snow is enough of a draw, eh?
January 1st, 2014 at 1:24 PM ^
These unis look freaking amazing on both sides. Love this match up as I grew up in toledo watching channel 9 out of Canada.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:24 PM ^
...in LA for the Rose Bowl. Go Cardinal!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:27 PM ^
Temp is still in double digits (12). #HALOL
January 1st, 2014 at 1:34 PM ^
Go Wings!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:46 PM ^

January 1st, 2014 at 1:24 PM ^
Howard's winged goalie helmet is fucking awesome.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:26 PM ^
Just can't escape the ZBB.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:26 PM ^
Those uniforms are sick, too.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:26 PM ^
Players on the ice just soaking it all in. Knowing they are part of something special.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:28 PM ^
Helm is out. Glendening on the first line
January 1st, 2014 at 1:30 PM ^
Dammit! Helm's out again?!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:27 PM ^
He's getting a message from me.
/s
January 1st, 2014 at 1:29 PM ^
If I'm right about this, he'll have played in the two biggest hockey games ever for two different teams, in two different leagues, both in the Big House. Pretty interesting
January 1st, 2014 at 1:33 PM ^
Awesome, I didn't know he had moved up. And he wins the opening faceoff!
January 1st, 2014 at 1:29 PM ^
ZBB, Drink.

January 1st, 2014 at 1:35 PM ^
This is like watching your childhood sweetheart make out with a bunch of hillbillies. do not like. do not like at all
January 1st, 2014 at 1:36 PM ^

January 1st, 2014 at 1:37 PM ^
This is going to be a long game.
January 1st, 2014 at 1:37 PM ^
This game is why I would like to see Michigan v. Ohio.... Blue v. Red...
January 1st, 2014 at 1:38 PM ^
That's a lot of snow.
