On Friday we had a real hockey game against the hacks from neighboring Fond Du Lac. We had referrees and everything!
Here's me listening to the coach before our next shift. I think he was telling us to take out their best player but I don't remember. The Fond Du Lac parents were quite crazy. Goals scored by their team resulted in the whole Fond Du Lac section jumping in the air and doing fist pumps replicated by the team on the ice. Our fans were slightly more restrained.
Here's me battling for the puck after the face-off. As you can see I was pretty much the smallest guy on the team. I'm only five and I was playing against eleven year olds. How I got on this team for the scrimmage I am not quite sure. It didn't help that the game went until 8:30 PM. I am usually asleep at 7:30 PM!
After the game they handed out drinks, granola bars, and candy. It was awesome.
They even gave me my first hockey award! I can't wait to put it up in my room! Afterwards I was really exhausted and fell asleep sitting on mom's lap.
