Another record for Chara, another highly entertaining elimination shootout, and a great moment in the Subban -> Skinner conversion. So glad I got to be at one of these; been wanting it since '96. 1/29/2011 10:50:34 PM |

how was the parking situation out there tonight? (figured it'd be similar for tomorrow)
i usually park in the state fair grounds lots when going to normal games, but i'd imagine they're either blocked off or charging for parking 1/30/2011 12:06:26 AM |

Main lots were $20 instead of $10. 1/30/2011 12:07:48 AM |
vinylbandit All American 48079 Posts user info edit post |
Free lot was $5. That walk is worth the $10 they normally charge for the regular lots; you can be damn sure it's worth $15. 1/30/2011 12:09:37 AM |
OldBlueChair All American 5405 Posts user info edit post |
free lot will be $5 from now on, for basketball/hockey/concerts, according to popo.
Because, according to the shithole governor that is Bev Purdue, people are using the cops 'services' when they use the crosswalk, and thus, they need funding to pay for it.
THE COPS ARE THERE ANYWAY, DIPSHIT.
anyways.
SKILLS COMP WAS HYPE. stoked for tomorrow. 1/30/2011 12:19:10 AM |

Got bumped twice waiting for the elevator at the end of the night. First time was by the commissioner and his posse, and the second time was by the whole Staal family. While he was waiting, the commissioner said to someone he was with that this year was his favorite skills day. Ended up on the elevator squeezed up against Aaron Ward and his son trying desperately not to drop all the shit I was carrying.

To be fair, you pay at least $10 (and usually much more) to park anywhere close to any other major sports arena, so five bucks isn't bad. Frankly, I'm surprised it lasted this long, especially after '08 when the Canes paid the state to keep the free lots closed on game days. 1/30/2011 12:31:17 AM |
OldBlueChair All American 5405 Posts user info edit post |
fortunately I don't have to park there, but I just think that 'paying for the cops service' is a bogus excuse to get the DOT some revenue, because that's where he said it goes.

Cam Ward being mic'd up was very cool. It was nice to see Staal score a couple of goals, and even though Skinner got an assist, I wish he could've gotten a goal. Oh well...it was a fun game to watch. Too bad Team Staal couldn't pull it out. 1/30/2011 8:43:30 PM |

We kept playing pass-a-puck which eventually got turned over due to their stacked D while almost every time they were down at our end they took a shot. We could have had that game. 1/30/2011 9:15:17 PM |

Pierre McGuire was absolutely GUSHING about Raleigh. Said he has been to every All-Star Weekend since 1990 and this was the best. Bob McKenzie said he wasn't sure he believed before that this is a true hockey market, but has no doubts now. 1/30/2011 10:29:37 PM |
