Sean got a free pair of tickets from work to a Dallas Stars hockey game. It was my first time to go to a hockey game and Sean's first time at a professional hockey game. We snagged a last minute babysitter for Emmy, and Calvin got to tag along for the fun.
The arena is huge, and it's where the Mavs play as well downtown at the American Airlines Arena.
I was super surprised by how many people were at the game and how many people seem like really intense fans.
The Dallas Stars Mascot is a weird looking lime green monster guy with ears that are hockey sticks. It was sort of frightening to see. I tried to get Sean to go down and get his picture with him and Calvin, but he was not interested.
Calvin was really happy to be hanging out with Mom and Dad. He was very calm and liked the game until the Stars scored and the arena erupted with crazy loud music and air horns and cheering...then he hated it!
There was some ear covering happening after that incident.
Cal and Sean smiling for a pic with the ice rink down below. We were pretty high up but still had a great view. We loved the game and it was a fun new experience for us both. We don't know a lot about the rules of hockey so sometimes we felt a bit lost. Glad we could partake in some Dallas culture and sports!
