When In Canada!

Obviously it wouldn't be a trip to Canada if there wasn't some ice hockey involved. So one Friday (it may have been a Thursday) not to long ago we headed out to support York's varsity team in their game against Brock. It was a lot of fun. Obviously it wasn't as intense as a professional game would be but it was a lot of fun to watch. There were a couple of fights and one guy had to be escorted off the ice after he'd been slammed into.

The best bit though had to be the half time game. At York the half time game is always played by members of the audience and is a challenge of sorts. For the Ice Hockey game Lauren (my fellow exchange student from Keele) and I agreed to take part in the challenge. What we had to do was line up 10 pucks and see how many we could shoot into the goal, whoever got the most in won. Out of the first 10 both Lauren and I got three in to the goal so we went to sudden death and the first to get on in won. Sadly Lauren got one into the goal before me so she won. But it was ok because we both got a prize. Our prize was a pair of York Lion Boxers. We have both used them as pj bottoms. Overall the game was a lot of fun, and it was great to spend time with my friends who also went to watch, even if York did lose.
