Hi Everyone,
The Winter Classic has just ended and I must say, besides the outcome, the Flyers and NHL should be congratulated for putting on one heck of a party. The atmosphere for each of the three main events was electric. The Fan Fest, tailgating and the way the ballpark was set up was amazing.
Maureen and I were able to experience the Alumni game and the Classic with a friend from Nova Scotia, Ryan Smith. It was his second time to Philadelphia, the first was about two years ago for the Flyers vs. Montreal playoff game, but this was a once in a lifetime experience.
Friday, we took him to the Skate Zone to watch the Alumni practice in the afternoon. After practice, Ryan was able to get his picture taken with Jeremy Roenick and some of the Alumni players. We had some great seats for both the Alumni and Classic games which made his experience here in Philly a time to remember.
We are getting ready to start the second half of the season, here’s to an even better final three and a half months and rolling into the playoffs
Joe Fisher, President
