So we are heading to DC tonight to see our beloved Jackets play the Caps. And, allegiances to my friend Blair aside, I’ll admit I have a small hope that we can pull out a win…or at least a point…or at least a respectable performance. (I confess, I do like Ovi)I do believe that regardless of what sport, regardless of what team, every fan should experience going to an away game. (Pens fans and that ridiculous taking over of Nationwide aside)
As a visitor even if you win, being in the minority away from home turf can (should!) teach you a lot about class and humility. If you lose, you will see receiving crap from home fans in a whole new light as well. Hopefully…this turns around into how you will treat visiting fans in your home arena.
Hopefully we’ll have some good stories to share…haven’t been in the Verizon center since back when we still lived there and it was called the MCI Center. If you see two people in blue jerseys, that’s probably us. LOL.
Looking forward to it – win, lose or draw!
Go Jackets!
