Yep, Hockey in Las Vegas! Last night we went to see the Las Vegas Wranglers defeat the Bakersfield Condors 5-1, and since the home team scored 5 goals, everyone in attendance got a coupon good for a free taco at Del Taco. Good game (from the home team view), team looked much better than the past couple of times we saw them play. And YES, I wore my "WINGS" shirt! During the game, I reflected on how the game of hockey is played, and decided on my "Thought of the Week" for today.
After the game, we went down to the "Strip" to watch "The Fab", a Beatles tribute band. Great time, busy, Super Bowl Weekend in Las Vegas! Gee, got to bed just before 4:00am, and then over to Samstown for Champagne Brunch this morning.
Now, time for a nap, before watching the Super Bowl.
Postscript:
Darn, as I was finishing this posting, the Detroit Pistons blew an 8 point lead at the end of the 3rd period, and lost their game. Looks like the pistons record in Jan was 6 - 9, and now today? 6 losses in a row at home? And they were looking so good in Dec.
And the Red Wings - now 5 losses in a row, even losing to "Dallas"? Ouch!
Sure hope the experience of the Lions isn't rubbing off on all the Detroit teams. :-) Can we say, "Time to change allegiance"?

Let me first say "GO STARS!!". Love to see them beat the Wings, especially at Joe Lewis. ;) And shame on you Dad for your last comment. Are you becoming a 'fair weather fan'? Say it isn't so!
Hmmm, 43 Super Bowls, NO Lions! Only 1 playoff win (over Dallas) in 43 years. No Sunday night, No Monday night, so can't even watch them out West. How much can one man endure?
I have made the decision that the Lions have 2 more seasons...if they do not start becoming competitive in the next 2 seasons (can we say, maybe a winning season!), I will begin collecting and wearing gear (hats, shirts, ect) for every team in the league! We'll see what happens.
Hmmm, can we say "I support a WINNER"? WOW, what a concept!
GO COLTS!!!!!!!
