And there were a bunch of new GM cars ( mostly Vettes and camaros) out in the parking lot autocrossing. There were a couple new ZR1's out there as well. They sound wicked... I tried to convince my wife that today would be watch all the cool new cars autocross day but she didnt go for it..

Yeah, that was GM's Maintstreet in Motion. You could have signed up and driven them. One of our guys was down there driving the cars.

You'll be able to see the Flyers newest player tomorrow night.

Slow-V6 · 02-14-2011, 08:36 PM

Yeah. I just saw it now when we got back to the Hotel!! Heard they gave up a 1st and 3rd round pick for him. He is a righ handed shot as well which is good.. Hopefully he will make the trip to Tampa with the team.. Found out that the section we are sitting in is going to be mostly Flyers fans.. Ran into a ton of Flyers fans today at Hollywood studio and they are all going to the game tomorrow night as well..

You're gonna have a great time at the game.

We just got back. It was a blast. There was about 19,000 people there and about 10,000 or so Flyers fans. We totally took over that building. It was like a home game. The best part about the whole thing is that the Lightning were selling Flyers shirts and Jerseys in all of there stores in the stadium. I never saw anything like that before. I asked the storekeepers how often do they sell other teams stuff and they said only when the Flyers are in town!! Freaking crazy..

There stadium was nice but very confusing to get around. Will deff try to book our future Disney vacations for when the Flyers are playing in Tampa!!

Saw all kinds of Flyers Jerseys from Bob Clarke, Pelle Lindbergh, Ron Hextall.. Very cool indeed. Even saw a couple Trent Klatt jerseys..

There are a ton of Philly/South Jersey transplants down in the Tampa area, that's why there were so many fans down there. But generally speaking you find a good amount of Flyers fans all over the place.

Glad you had a good time, seeing a shootout and a rare penalty shot at your first game is a good thing.

Now hit up the Wells Fargo Center and just see how rowdy us Flyers fans can be when it's an important game.

So what did you think about seeing the game live and the speed? Much different than watching it on TV.

...and lol@Trent Klatt jerseys....that's awesome.

I have been to NHL games before just not a Flyers game. When I was stationed on the USS Enterprise we had a port call in Miami and A bunch of us sailors went to the opening night of the Panters vrs Canucks back in 2000.. That was cool. Also went to a NYR game in NYC as well..

The biggest thing is that they were selling the Flyers jerseys at the Tampa Bay Stadium.. Thats a riot..

We would hit up the Wells Fargo center but its pretty pricey for the 3 of us. It cost us 8.00 a ticket to see the Lightning play the Flyers in FL.. I know I am cheap..

Frosty · 02-16-2011, 11:46 AM

Oh OK, thought you've never been to a hockey game before. Well either way it was a good game for your first Flyers game then.
