Going to my 1st NHL game! Coyotes at Avs!

alaskan_teg00 · 03-21-2009, 07:24 PM

FINALLY!!! After years of watching ECHL and WCHA hockey live, I finally get to see my first NHL hockey game. My girlfriend and I are heading to Denver, CO to visit my family for about a week (5 year old sisters spring break). My step-dad was able to score us some good tickets. I can only count the days til we leave, I'm super stoked!

I've read the other two threads about there first game experiences, which lead me to start this one. I'm sure theres some Colorado folks around the board that could give me some advice. So far I know to go early, stay for the entire game, and have the time of my life.

T-minus 11 days and counting.....

What is this, Christmas? Everyone's got tickets except me. :(

LOL

I remember talking to you a couple months back how you wanted to go to a game badly, I'm glad you finally got your chance. I hope you have a blast and maybe you'll come out with some autographs or something.

Go AVS!

Have the best of times for your 1st NHL game. Thanks for the post on my thread so its only fair to return the favor. Take some pics, from what i read and been told get there early to check out the pregame skate and let all of us know how it goes.

Enjoy your first,i went to phoenix this year and enjoyed one in their rink,got 2 more to go to at the bell centre before the season ends!

Thanks for the replies. I'm very excited. Get to get out of this cold Alaskan weather and jump right into summer! I checked out the virtual 3D seat section they had on the Avalanche website. Shows where you'd be sitting. From what I know I'm on the side that the Avs attack twice and its only a few rows up. Ahhh.....!!! Can't wait!

Go Avs! Have a blast!

littlekane1088 · 03-22-2009, 12:26 AM

Nice to have those seats, again, have a blast, it's a very unique experience.

mmm i love denver. was a beautiful place. ya gotta head to the ESPN zone in downtown sometime (not sure if it is still there). if it is, ya gotta go!!!

as for the game itself, go early and get food asap if you plan on eating there as lines at games tend to get long as more people file in
