PH is seriously pissed off about the whole NHL lockout thing.
I don’t blame him. It’s really hard to have any sympathy for rich guys who squabble over money while depriving the little people of their entertainment.
In retaliation, and also because it came with free entrance to Playland as an enticement, PH got tickets to Giants game. The Giants are WHL, which is not the Women’s Hockey League (which would make sense) but the Western Hockey League – a step down from NHL, and unaffected by the current strike.
Fine with me. Cheaper than Canucks tickets, and Owl doesn’t know the difference.
Canucks. Giants. Close enough.
He loved it, of course, because he’s a raging extrovert, and he loves hockey.
He cheered and gasped in awe.
“Oooh!”
“WOW!”
and then, as he pointed enthusiastically at the players, his little voice rang loud among the hockey fans.
“OOOH! SOCCER!!”
HAHAHA This reminds me of when I went to the zoo the other day, and a small boy ran up to the lion window and shouted, “TIGERS!” And another kid looked at the lemurs and said, “Pranda bears!” (Yes, with the R) Adorable.
That second picture, especially, is fabulous.
Love it! That second picture is gorgeous and I don’t blame PH for being annoyed either. That kind of thing does my head in.
Ha! That’s so great. What a cutie.
My hubby will be bummed about NHL issues, too. Get over yourselves, guys. I can’t wrap my head around how much professional atheletes are paid compared to, say, nurses and teachers. 😛
We went to a WHL game last night. Kootenay Ice v. Prince George. Good game, some fights, we only lost by 1. Pretty good. Glad Owl liked the “soccer”.
