WILDCATTERS WIN

All I can say is....

WHAT A GREAT GAME!

Everything was just wonderful!

From the tailgate party, to the pre-game intro, the fights, goals, and then the salute to the crowd that the players did after the game.

One thing I didn't like was the number of penalties, regardless of whose team it was.

It disrupted the flow of the game WAY too much.

I mean, there was one point that Pensacola had SIX guys in the box, and there were times in the game that we were playing 3 on 3 hockey.

And also when there were so many penalties that there wasn't room on the scoreboard.

The ref lost complete control of the game.

But I can finally say it -- THE 'CATTERS ARE BACK!

Oh, and how do they come up with us only having 3,075 in attendance?

The arena seats nearly 8,000 and it was OVER half full.

And it said in the paper this morning that over 3,000 had been sold.

Was I just imagining all of the people lining up for tickets just before the game?

I guess it makes up for all of those times that the attendance was padded before.

Coop, were you there?

You missed some great chili!

a total of 43 penalties. i think the 3 on 3 hockey was close to 4 minutes long.

The ref did lose complete control of the game. hockey is a contact sport and he cant call a penalty for every check, as he tried to do tonight. most of the calls we got looked to be legal checks on both sides. but all and all the Catters Won!!!!
