Tim Thomas Saves Lives!

Tim Thomas, goalie for the Boston Bruins.

Last night Leslie and I went to the Bruins Caps game because I don't like to miss any opportunity to see any Boston teams in any sport when they come to town. It kinda makes me feel at home.

We got to Section 113 and found ourselves surrounded by amusing people.

Next to us was an older single mother and her maybe 8 year old son. Die hard caps fans, and severely spoiled child.

In front of us were two guys about our age who were clearly bruins fans. Turns out one of them is from Needham (a town close to where I'm from, Newton)...Actually Matt if you read this his name is Pat and he knows you.

The boys kept cheering for Tiiiiiiim Thomas every time the caps tried to score, and announced things like "Tim Thomas has siding for arms", "Tim Thomas has bricks for shin pads" (i guess implying TT is built like a house and can stop anything)...It was almost Jack Bauer-esq.

The mom kept trying to hit on the boys which was kinda funny, especially when the boys invited us out to drinks after the game and not her. (to which we declined) And then when the game went into OT the little boy started cheering and giving high fives to getting to stay up past his bed time!

Lastly what I dont get is why noone appreciates Dippin Dots: Ice cream of the future! Its awesome. Independantly Leslie and each of the guys questioned me on it...asking if i was eatting stones or what. You people just dont understand, its awesome. And just wait till the future comes!




Bruins won in OT shoot out!
