Spit-fired Up!

...or not so much. I got tickets to a Windsor Spitfires home game, hosting hated OHL rival the London Knights at the WFCU Centre.....in what should have been a hard-fought battle.

The Spits didn't really show up for this one, other than their goalie DiPietro - sadly he was their best player in a 4-0 yawner. Still, I had a great time in good seats with buddy Kris....even if we did spend the third period making juvenile jokes about Knights player Cliff Pu just to amuse ourselves. To Pu's credit, he actually played a great game....but every time he touched the puck, it was a "crappy play" or a "shitty goal".

Better luck next time Spits, especially if you hope to defend your 2017 Memorial Cup title - at any rate, we plan to get to many more games!
