Pardon me, folks, but little bit of a story time....
Had a flight where I was able to watch the regulation with my wife (new Westjet wifi via Telus is legit, streamed Sportsnet crystal clear - total game changer) We both went absolutely bonkers in the plane when Cole tied it up. Got some laughs, looks, but all in good fun.
Only problem was going to be the next flight. Had a connecting flight in Calgary back to Winnipeg. Standard wifi which can't handle shit. So we get close to our gate and there had to be nearly 30 people watching, huddled around a restaurant bar TV. Just taking in every near miss in the OTs.
As the 2nd OT was winding down - It basically got to the point where we pushed boarding as long as we could and had to get on.
People are furiously watching on their phones as they are making their way onto the plane. We are just stepping onto the plane as Lowry scores the GWG. The plane absolutely erupted in cheers and Go Jets Go chants. It was seriously so f***ing awesome.
I love this city and team so much. What a historic moment in Winnipeg hockey lore tonight. Goodness gracious.
