October 8 is so close.....

NHL season is only a couple of weeks away! This year, I'm gonna watch as many games as humanly possible, and tape a helluva lot of the playoff games; with the prospect of a lockout in 2004, I'm gonna get a good fix this year...and have some taped footage to help ease the pain next year.

i'm goin to the wings opener...got suite tickets :D

[hitmansb]

Nice score...friend's suite, or corporate? I love getting invites to corporate suites at the Corel Center to watch the Sens...free food and beer!

[pucknutz78]

well its the MGM Grand Casino suite...my boss is a big gambler and she got 4 tix and gave em to my buddy, so i get to go too if i can get the nite off work.

[hitmansb]

Start kissing said boss's ass immediately to secure the night off....you can't miss the opener in a suite that's gonna be packed with complimentary food and booze!!!

[pucknutz78]

yea no shit, she gets tix for EVERYTHING...i went to a *cough, cough* Tigers game earlier this year...only reason i went cause they were suite tix and all the food and alcohol you can dream of.

[hitmansb]

Gotta love corporate perks, eh? I'd be kissing up to your boss non-stop. Man, she must drop a lot of cash in the casino to be getting all these perks.

[pucknutz78]

yea, she does drop lots of cash...she can get tix to all 4 sports teams...front row seats to any concert in town, etc....its crazy, after we close, she'll call the casino some nites and they send her a limo and shit.

[pucknutz78]

well the game is oct 9 i believe, which is a thrus, so i should be ok....if it was wed. i would be fucked.

[hitmansb]

Damn...it must be sick money she loses. The bar must do VERY well for her to have so much disposable income. What kinda bar is it?

[pucknutz78]

its hard to explain, its half dive bar and half club...$5 cover tues-sat though, but i dont know how she makes as much $$ as she does either.

[hitmansb]

You notice anything shady there? Drugs or something? Maybe it's a money laundering front. I know a few bars around here where the owners are flush with moola, but the bar is seldom busy.

[pucknutz78]

well the bar is REALLY busy, but i just dont see how she makes as much as she does, it wouldnt surprise me if she had something else goin on. but it is a busy bar though

[hitmansb]

You'd be surprised how much profit you can turn selling watered-down drinks...especially when you fill those nice premium-brand liquor bottles with the cheapest hooch around.

[pucknutz78]

ok...after getting off topic....GO WINGS!!!!!!!!! and FUCK the Devils...;)
