Weird...the missus and I went out to eat at Carraba's and I'm wearing an Avs Stanley Cup Champs shirt.
This is Houston Texas, mind you. Deep in the heart of "nobody knows or cares about hockey" country.
The waiter comes up and says he hates my shirt. For a second I wondered if I had worn a non-Avs shirt because nobody than a few posters on here knows who the Avs are or what the Stanley Cup is.
After he said he hates my shirt, he says his a TBL fan!
I'm like " a hockey fan in Houston? Who knew?"
He congratulated me on the Avs season and I told him they had a couple cups already and "let's meet again next season for all of the marbles.
Yes, it is a lame story, but being a hockey's fan in Houston is rare. So meeting a hockey fan in this city and then finding out they're a TB fan and a little jealous of my team was bizarre.
