Re: All Things DU XXV - Murray Up and Get The Chevy Out of The Repair Shop
Perfect! Haha yeah it was Dave. I knew he had a 4 letter first name but my memory was a little iffy due to several libations. Here is the play by play of the confrontation:
So, I'm sitting in my seat before the game and when the refs came out for their pre-game skate I realized the ref for this game had an uncanny resembelance to Anderson. I even thought she may be Anderson's sister. (Although, my wife disagreed. It could have been the beer.) So, there I was enjoying my $7 dollar beer as the game started but to my suprise with less than a minute gone by I notice the ref's arm up as she is calling a penalty on team USA. Not only was I in disbelief about this call so were all the fans. So, I shout out "NICE CALL ANDERSON!!!" and everyone around me starts laughing except Dave . He was standing in the tunnel between the benches and my seat is just above the tunnel in the first row. He turns around and asks me with attitude do you mean "Todd Anderson the WCHA referree?" To say the least I was stunned. I asked myself, why is this guy calling me out? Who is this guy? Is he a fellow ref? I replied akwardly yes Todd Anderson. I figured there was no point denying the fact that i knew who he was since I was wearing a DU jersey and yelled out his name.
The most awkward part though was before I could say anything else the folks sitting behind me yelled "ANDERSON IS THE WORST REF EVER." After that was said I busted out laughing and he turned away from us with a utter look of shock. The rest of the game was very awkard because he remained standing in the tunnel but would not even look up in the stands. The only reason i knew his name was because he had a badge on that had his name on it.
What made me so curious was the fact that he called me out. He must really like anderson to put himself in such an awkward situation.
USA Hockey's Director of Communications is Dave Fischer of Colorado Springs Colo. Mike Fisher of the Ottawa Senators is dating Carrie Underwood. However Mike Fisher was on the ice for the Senators on Saturday night against Carolina.
Sounds like a good story no matter who it was. Give us a play by play of how it went down.
