We went to watch the Hitmen take on the Portland Winterhawks - it was double exchange night, so we got to exchange each one of mom and dad's unused season tickets for 2 tickets. I guess not a lot of people knew about double exchange night as there was hardly anyone there. That, or maybe it was the fact that it was a weekday night.
But, it didn't bother us that there wasn't very many other fans there. That just means more chances for us to be on the jumbotraun! Logan and Katie were both on the big screen multiple times through out the night.
AND, we got Farley almost all to ourselves! We were lucky enough to get GREAT seats (2nd row, right behind the goalie) and it happened to be where the zambonie AND Farley came out. Farley came and "talked" to us a lot. Logan had a LOT of stories to tell him.... poor Farley.
Initially Katie liked Farley. She gave him high fives and said "hi". But then Farley started to tickle her...
It wasn't long after that Katie to decide she no longer liked Farley.
Despite bringing out all their best dance moves, and some of the only kids there, poor Logan and Katie were crushed that they didn't win the "Dance for Your Dinner" competition. But at least they were contestants and made it up on the big screen.... again.
We saw a lot of action from our seats... to bad it was always the Winterhawks scoring. The Hitmen lost 7-1.
Even Farley was getting pretty ticked off.
Farley brought both Logan and Katie a surprise during the last period. For Logan he brought blue cotton candy - something Logan had asked for all night, but was continuously told "Only Grandpa buys Cotton Candy, and grandpa's not here".
And he tried to win Katie over by bringing her a plush Farley.... I don't think it worked.
In the end it was the perfect Hitmen game. We really couldn't have asked for much more. Well, maybe a win on the Hitmen's behalf.... and it wouldn't have hurt to win the 50/50.
Poor daddy - the mule horse - carrying both kids back to the car.

Ha ha, Katie's face while looking at the plush Farley is hilarious!!
I was there, and when I saw Logan and Katie on the jumboton, I saw you were just around the corner from me! I was in section 120 behind the penalty box. I was surprised there weren't many people there.
