Shawn has overtaken Farwell in Ranger info, IMO. I didn't like the guy at first but he has grown on me. Love the extra 30 minute segment on Rogers just before the game.
Also, Josh Brown had this to say in his write up..........
- Did the Rangers just get out-Oktoberfested by Saginaw? Kitchener honoured its annual German festival at the Aud with Onkel Hans and Tante Frieda taking part in the ceremonial puck drop on Friday. There were games and themed activities too. But the Spirit went big at home on Saturday with the Kowalski Brothers Polka Band while fans could also create their own mini pretzel necklaces and design their own Bavarian hats. At intermission there was a stein holding and pretzel eating competition. Pretzel eating. That’s gold Jerry, gold. Oh, and players wore an Oktoberfest themed jersey during warm-ups. Slow clap for Saginaw. You get my “Ziggy Zaggy, Ziggy Zaggy, Oi Oi Oi!”
For a building our size, our "in between entertainment" is lame compared to other arenas. Places like Saginaw and Erie really know how to put on an event. In Kitchener, you have the same trivia questions year after year (And there is ALWAYS a winner whether the questions are correct or not..........how cute) , kids competing against adults in "announcing", (any you know who always wins?), boring over under guess games, random "sharp dressed man" winners (VERY random), etc. I sure do hope this changes with the departure of our Rangers cheerleader.
