Yesterday we had a team meeting at work. Here in DC there are 4 of us. We are fairly spread out right now so we make sure to sync up in person regularly. Yesterday as we had lunch one of the guys suggested we try to get tickets to the Caps-Rangers game at the Verizon Center. Well I had never been to a good 2nd Round play-off game so with my forgiving wife's blessing we got 3 tickets for the 3 that wanted to go.

The show part of the game |
Grant it is was not cheap, the seats were good as you can see below, and it turns out we did get to see almost two whole hockey games (just about 5 minutes short of it as it went to 3 overtime periods).

Action on the ice |
The game was good but after 5-1/2 periods I think everyone was just wanting someone to make that final tally. The Caps/Verizon people had called DC Metro to make sure the fans would have a way home and Metro extended their opening to 1 AM. Even with that a lot of us were wondering if that would be enough as it approached 12:10.
It was a great way to spend an evening but unless the Sens (or the Predators - and I would take La) are in a playoff game I think I will keep my watching at home
