Tonight Fort McMurray will make hockey history, by hosting the first ever outdoor junior hockey game. They will also break the AJHL hockey attendance record with 5000 cheering fans watching the game between the Fort McMurray Oil Barrons and the Drayton Valley Thunder.This is big deal up here. The $10 tickets sold out in 54 minutes, and this week they’ve been selling online for $150. Crazy! I wasn’t fast enough to get tickets, so I’m volunteering my way in instead. And of course, at the last minute Special K was handed a pair or VIP tickets, so we both get to go! Except he'll probably get to spend more time in the beer tent.
$150 for minor hockey? That's absolutely awesome. +10 for Fort Mac; -1,583,192,793 for you for moving there.
