The addition of the Utahokkake Club to the list of professional sports teams in the state was an exciting plus of last year’s cultural vulture. The existence of the team provided a completely new conversation topic for social gathering and many event options for a fun night. For the most casual sports fans like me.
I am not a “sports person”. In other words, in 1997, I was never sitting on the sofa to see sporting events from home outside of the Olympics, Super Bowls, and NBA Finals.
However, I enjoy participating in the game, especially the home game of Utah’s team. I think the game is more interesting. I like everything around -I am emotionally invested in the game drama with all sights and smells around the fans and the stupid half -time performance. And since last year’s team arrived in Arizona, I wanted to participate in the Yuta Hocke -Club match. But I felt that I was too threatened.
Our people are prone to dismissal syndrome, and are unfamiliar with sports and their habits, and there are barriers to entering hockey games. We grew up with a professional basketball team, but not hockey. And we don’t like to hear or look stupid around thousands of fans, so we jump into the foundation or save ourselves to save ourselves so that they look stupid. I have avoided participation. This is a pity because it looks really fun to worry about hockey.
So I decided to take one of the idiots of hockey, take one for other hockey idiots, and participate in a game that I don’t know about what to expect.
And now, I’m ready to answer all the questions I have, and you probably have and are in.
Is it chilly in the arena?
I had a down coat all the time, and it wasn’t too warm, so yes, during the hockey game, it was colder than a basketball game, monster track racks, or WWE smackdown -the other three events. I participated in the Delta Center. To freeze the ice, it must be cold. But it’s cold, not a hat, gloves, scarf. It’s like a cold of A-man-is-controlling-in your office illuminated by your office.
We recommend a layer that can be easily discharged for optimal comfort.
Is the game attractive and easy to follow?
The rules of the game are very simple. Both teams are trying to get a pack for the opponent’s goals. For me, for me, a fool of hockey, the challenge was to track the pack from my seat in the lowest row of the upper bowl. Even while I was looking at the Jumbotron, it took a little time to focus on a small black disk that slips around the ice. I felt like a Hogwarts student looking for Golden Nich. I’m sorry to create such a stupid reference in the sports story. That’s everything I have.
But when I found a way to focus, I fell into rivets. It’s not a high score game, but it’s a fast game. The three 20 minutes of time flew.
Is there anything very exciting or surprising about games?
yes! violence!
In the first minute of the first quarter, one of our players -a man with a red -haired beard that I am told is called “spicy tuna” -is one of the players. I’m a little intertwined with the battle of gloves with gloves. He was kicked out of the game. 5 minutes. Before skating, he saw the crowd directly from the nose, gave a fist pump, and urged the crowd to loud. Certainly spicy tuna!
Readers, I loved it. But it also feared me in an existing way. Since I witnessed a quarrel, I had to ask some difficult questions. Question, am I thirsty? And did I actually enjoy seeing the battle of a swordfighter in the ancient Rome Colosseo? I am afraid that the answer may be Jesus.
The first dust was the most bloody, but it was not the only battle at night. The players hit each other on the wall, and the REF is on skating! -You had to insert themselves between rough players every two minutes. Many stick equipment was sent to the penalty box. However, many pushes and pushes, and the sticks of the sticks were not neatly organized. “Is this allowed?” I asked many times, but the answer seemed like Jesus. And I was happy.
So be prepared to face your own basic instinct.
Do you have a habit of hockey’s foundation that I need to know?
I really played it cool and tried to blend in among hockey fans, but I think it was separated in most parts. However, I felt that I was very confused between the national anthem. This is because some fans cheered in the moving process of the “Star Spanguled Banner”, and other fans booed in certain words. I was worried about the feelings of the vocal soloist singing her heart. But I was the only one.
After consulting with a hockey expert, I learned that this was the hockey. Fans emphasize the specific part of the national anthem that matches the team. For example, Seattle fans will support you in “Oh, you can build the sea.” Capitals fans shouted the word “red”, and Colorado’s avalanche fans emphasized the line saying, “Our flag is still there.”
I don’t know when and why and why I’m shouting during the national anthem I witnessed, but I’m not impatient for random shouts and cheers, and there is a high possibility that soloists are prepared. I am relieved to know that.
How about snacks?
We, Uta Sports fans, are blessed with many delicious dishes options in the Delta Center played by both Utajaz and Utahokke Club. If I eat a meal in the game, it will probably be a Zawarut, banana pepper, special sauce, and a pickles on the side. Then I wash it off with a huge diet cola with a fresh lime of Swig.
However, our game was already late in the evening after having dinner, so I chose popcorn and drinks. And it was the best popcorn I had so far. I am not a double curve. And I can trust me because I eat a lot of popcorn.
All pop kernels were completely coated with artificial butter taste and salt. My hat is heading to the whole concession team.
Is snacks affordable?
The large popcorn and two soda were 38 American dollars. So not. But it was 2025. There is no reasonable price. If you go outside, you will probably spend $ 500. So what is another $ 38?
And again, I can’t emphasize this well -it was the best popcorn I had ever had.
How many times can you see Zamboni?
At least twice. During two breaks during the period. And it’s thrilling as you expect.
Can the hockey idiot enjoy the Utahokke Club Game?
Look. The only thing I knew about hockey before participating in the game was to see “The Mighty Ducks” (1992), “D2: The Mighty Ducks” (1994), and “D3: The Mighty Ducks” (1996). I learned in. I participated in my formation and a women’s hockey game in the 2002 Salt Lake Olympics. 20 years ago. I didn’t know much about the game, except that it was played on ice on skating and sticks.
And I spent a spectacular time. It’s not just because the popcorn was very delicious. The blood -covered battle, skating referees, and a game full of actions were made for one of the more interesting nights I had for a long time.
I can’t wait again. Next time as an expert.
