It was a Detroit fan lol. They were super sweet as a whole, though, and had some funny raffle jokes. I was in the WaFd club area! I either attend with blue line games or volunteer during most red line games, so I'm sure we can cross paths at some point! Are you going to either game next week?

This is a wonderful read, and you should check it out unless you are also devoid of human emotion.

We apparently did not de-oil them enough. A somewhat inebriated fan asked me if I was Santa, though. #SeaKraken

It's a very reasonable plan.

As far as I know, he's not married, and he is age appropriate! I'm sure that'll get me in. We'll just ignore that he's rich, famous, and 15 times more attractive than me.

I'm volunteering at the #SeaKraken game tonight. Supposedly for the 50/50 raffle, but they'll probably also have us treating the krakens injured by the oil spills over the past week.

I was making fun of him in bald eagle, but anything above 22Β°C makes me sad and sweaty.

I'm honored to accept the Mark Ellis Award for achievements in being short and overlooked.

There won't be a weird zombie hand trophy, though, just the ghost of a Gold Glove.

For sure light jacket weather. Possibly long pants, but shorts are borderline okay.

I bet Phillies front office didn't even think to ask players if they know their blood should stay inside their body before they signed them

I was grocery shopping last night, and a 25ish year old woman told me she loved my boots.

β€œWhere did you get them?!”

Me: β€œAt Target, like… 15 years ago.”

It was at that moment that an AARP application magically appeared in my hands.

This is some bullshit. My bid for Warner Bros was completely ignored after some asshole leaked my plans to call it Whatnot Bros.

women's hockey is fun bc much like women's soccer, the people who try to drive up a rivalry marketing style are always thwarted by the players dating or marrying each other

Climate Pledge was louder and more excitable than Kraken games tonight. Girls do hockey better.

They're making us do the wave while playing "Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride." How dare they disrespect Lilo like this?

Two women in front of me in line at the Torrent game definitely aren't in love.

One of them: "People always think we're a couple. I mean, you're married to a (gross tone) *man*, and I am so so ridiculously straight."

I really like Hilary Knight. She's originally from Idaho, and since, like, three of us are from there, it's nice to see a third of the population has made something of herself.
