Frozen Fortune in Summer
Although he is in his middles sixties, my father skates with the over-70 set of GeriHatricks; he has a medical exemption to "skate up" with the "vets," as he had knee replacement surgery earlier this summer. He told me it was a pretty big deal being able to go in the room this week and announce to the fellas that his son would be taking him to the Frozen Four in Washington next spring. Like Dad, a few of his teammates played a bit of hockey in college.
A healthy number of our readers won college hockey's big lottery last week and secured their own tickets to the 2009 Frozen Four. Others will join in the party via other avenues. We wish there was a way for every one of our local readers to be so lucky, but we've really enjoyed reading the elation-laden accounts of those who have. Keep 'em coming.
