Winter Texan Night at State Farm Arena



Our Winter Ranch bus driver, Jack Hulsey, picked those of us going on the bus to the hockey game at 6 PM.  The Killer Bees (the home ice hockey team) played the Amarillo Bulls.

The good news was that it was Winter Texan Night at the State Farm Arena in Hildalgo so all the seats for us senior Winter Texans were free.  The bad news is that the concession stand food was not.  Lee bought me a 20 oz water for $4 and our friend, Dave, bought a beer for $7.50!

The game started out with a bang.  Both teams were out there throwing each other around and banging into walls.  We didn't think anyone was ever going to score but then the worst happened and the Bulls scored two goals.  

Final Score
In the end the Bulls won 4 to 2.  They dominated the whole game!  We actually had a good time even though the outcome wasn't so great!

Our bus has a new paint job.  Last year we called it "Big Blue".  Now it needs a new nickname!

Killer Bees Game

A  contest during intermission
JD in the Activities Office gave us free tickets to the Killer Bees game tonight.  Since my knee has been giving me fits, we decided to skip the dance tonight to take him up on it.  We aren't avid hockey fans, but it is fun once in awhile.  The Killer Bees played Wichita Thunder tonight and Wichita just plain outclassed them.  Wichita won 4-1 and it was probably an easy win for them!  

When we came in to the arena we were given these blow-up hockey sticks for noise makers.  Lee blew his up and made noise throughout the game.  I just kept mine in my purse.  I think our grandson, Tommy, will enjoy them since he is playing hockey!
