ZapRowsdower8 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Well, its official, I'm the worst son ever. I had to go and schedule my wedding for the same night as game 4. My family has had Pens season tickets for 15 years. My dad and I have been to lots of great games (Mario's Comeback against the Leafs) and some horrible ones (Eastern finals against Florida) but we have never been to a Stanley Cup Finals game. I guess that streak won't end this season either.... stupid wedding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So last June when she said,"Is May 31st OK?" I probably just nodded silently and continued watching whatever was on TV. Second not to self: Always pay attention to what the wife is saying.

Neon_Matrix Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 unless your team is never destined to reach the finals again....Maple Leafs.Hey now... what about when Passover is scheduled on the night of a playoff game and you were offered free tickets to the game in $150 dollar seats but couldn't go because you had to go to Passover? Yea, that sucked ass, and while we lost the game back in '04, it went 2 periods of OT. Regret. Because Korbyn Is Colour Blind, My Signature Is Now Idiot Proof - Thanks Again Braden!!Go Leafs Go!

FiddySicks Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Well hockey is over, too bad they didn't aren't going to play the Stanley Cup Finals this year, it would have been nice to see a clear cut winner. Seriously, why do I even still bother with Hockey and Basketball? On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

Maz Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette had a special section for the finals in today's issue. As an Indiana Jones fan, Id say they did well with the cover page.
