Some friends and I were able to get tickets for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup playoffs in Detroit at the Joe Louis Arena. What an amazing experience. It's taken years to get to a Wings game, but to go to a Finals game was really the way to go. We were sitting about 4 rows from the very top of the arena, but just being there was worth it.
Before the game we walked down to see the Spirit of Detroit. All dressed and ready for the game(s)
We took the people mover from the parking garage to the arena. Just outside the arena.
There's Al!!!!
Inside the "The Joe". There sure are a lot of pennants.
You can even get Leinie's there. A little different then the real Leinie Lodge, but still nice to see.
