Outside Hockey Part 3: The Insider

This is Part Three of a four part look at the different views of outdoor hockey.  Part One and Part Two are found here.  The following is a repost from caseandpointsports.com.

Part Three: The Insider

In 2011 I was fortune enough to snag a media pass to attend the NHL's premier event, the 2011 Winter Classic in Pittsburgh, PA.  This was my view from the dry seats.

Outside Hockey Part 2: The Participant

This is the second in a four part series on the different views of outdoor hockey.  Click here for Part 1.

Part 2: The Patricipant

I did it backwards.  I was born in Pittsburgh, PA.  I grew up outside of Harrisburg, PA.  I was 18 when I started playing ice hockey.  In Charleston, SC.  I never had the chance to play pond hockey growing up in the game.  I never knew if I'd had the chance but I longed for the opportunity.

Finally the chance came.

Outside Hockey Part One: The Outsider

This is part one of a four part series in the different views of outdoor hockey games.

Part One: The Outsider

I could have been there.  Instead I had to pass.  The day before New Years Eve I received a text from my good friend The Steve, "We have a free ticket.  Drive up to Pittsburgh and it's yours.  We'll take you to Buffalo."  Living in Charleston, SC this wasn't going to happen as my bank account was much closer to $0.00 than the amount needed to drive up to Pittsburgh.  I'd have to sit and watch at home.

As an outsider
As a participant
As an insider
As a fan

You guys can help me, too!
