Great article - sounds like they had a blast 
Very nice article, thank you for sharing @ICdave...
This is a great story, puts it in to perspective how lucky we are to have a NHL team. Go Jets Go.Wanted to share this story about a family coming to Winnipeg to see a Jets game for the first time from Georgia. Always interesting to hear about this city/Jets experience from the eyes of someone being here for the first time.
You can read about their experience here.

Savannah is an amazing town....too many tourists.....but still amazing.
Great story @ICdave !Wanted to share this story about a family coming to Winnipeg to see a Jets game for the first time from Georgia. Always interesting to hear about this city/Jets experience from the eyes of someone being here for the first time.

My favourite part was the TN Employee who took them on a tour the facility the night before. That’s part of what makes a ‘small market‘ like Winnipeg, special. That young man & his family will remember this trip forever

Now that's a real Jets (Thrasher's) Fan Thanks for Loving the Jets
I think Winnipeggers take for granted that we have a pretty amazing city in many aspects. No it's not perfect, but neither is Savannah or any other city. Regardless, it's great to see an outsiders perspective and how they had a good time in Winnipeg.
Article was better than your 3 star selection vs the Pens, that's for sure.

Nothing like your first home game as a foreign Jets fan. Hope that employee gets a raise!
Only if you come with 2 friends so we can recreate this scene when we meet.Am I going to have my own story when I eventually finally make it to Winnipeg?
