As you've seen from previous posts, my "highlights" often include details of the full experience apart and aside from the game itself. Well here in Syracuse, aside from the rink complex featuring a neighborhing short skating oval which just happens to have an orange ice surface (go figure!), a very spirited student body came out in support of the "Orangemen" for last night's game....so proud of their Orange that after the handshake, while the Lakers were leaving the ice, actual oranges were thrown in their direction!!!
No intent to hurt anyone....just symbolic of the fact that the Orangemen were still there and have no intention of being forgotten.
(Maybe Brown fans could do something similar.....oops, no, bad idea!)
Love that college spirit!!!
Oh, and the player introductions are pretty cool too, featuring multi-colored spotlights in an otherwise dimly lit arena and a rotating crystal dance ball hanging over center ice sparkling in all directions.
Hux, this is definitely not the venue for you my friend....no concession stand, just two vending machines and nothing within reasonable walking distance.
