My "Tattoo"

Notice my lovely tattoo. HEH! I put one on each ankle, even though my ankles were so swollen I couldn’t hardly find them!

We went out for dinner before the game, and then strolled through the patio party a little while before taking our seats. there were silver tinsel pompoms on every seat. This year’s playoff theme is “Get Electric” and when all 17000 screaming fans were waving them, it looked really cool!! Whenever the Oilers scored they dropped silver streamers from the ceiling. We set a new “noise level” record again. I didn’t think that was EVER possible after the last playoff run 3 years ago.

The game went into double overtime, so it was from 8:00- 12:05!! Long game! I’m so glad I took today off! I was exhausted, had a huge headache from the noise and the beer, my arms were both aching from shaking my pompoms, and my throat is sore from cheering! Needless to say, we’re selling our tickets for tomorrow night’s game to Sarah and her girlfriend. We’re too old for so much excitement in one work week! We’ll watch on TV safely plopped in our recliners. There will be another home game on Monday. I just hope it’s not at 8:00 pm!!
