Hello.

I'm unfamiliar with the term Red Dirt for a music genre.

 

[MNels]

Hello.

I'm unfamiliar with the term Red Dirt for a music genre.

It’s Oklahoma/Texas country, has its own sound compared to radio country music, I can’t listen to country on the radio. Not a fan of the poppy/rap sound.

My favorite Red Dirt bands/singers are Randy Rogers Band, Cody Jinks, Wade Bowen, Mike Ryan, Reckless Kelly & old school Cross Canadian Ragweed.

Favorite Player: Kirill Kaprizov

Music: Punk, rap, jazz

I'm a big fan of hockey, and really sports in general. I will watch any good and successful Minnesota team, I guess I'm that kind of loyalist. I work as a marketing professional for an IT firm. I also am a moderator over at the /r/wildhockey subreddit, going on....who knows how many years.

Nice to meet you folks.

Jk, welcome.
Didn’t know there was a wild subreddit. Cool.

Then I'm still a fan, just a less enthusiastic one :p

Thanks for the warm welcome, friends.

​

Fav Non Wild Players: Almost all former Wild Players, anyone really fun to watch (Tage Thompson), Mark Stone, Pavelski, Stamkos​

​

Fav Wild Prospect: Yurov/Ohgren (Stramel too because I think he'll fit somewhere in the line-up and I want him to prove everyone wrong)​

​

Fav Wild moment/how I became a fan: My dad picking me up and throwing me in the air once Nino scored in Game 7 OT / I became a fan and will always be as this is my dad and I's favorite shared interest-- the Wild are around 25% of our relationship.​

​

How long I have been a Wild fan: as long as I can remember; 4 years old? Got really big into it during the 2013 lockout season (9 years old).​

​

Really not trying to sound like a snob but collecting these is something I love and am proud of.​

​

I know I don't talk much, but I absolutely love these threads and am active daily-- I'll start talking more when I feel like more of a vet-- for now I feel like a rookie. All of you guys are great and are a perfect remedy to homesickness when I'm away at college. LET'S GO WILD; TRUST THE PROCESS!!!​

Maybe we'll get this thread killed off by the year 2023.

Nope!

Can’t believe it’s been 10 years since my original post in this thread. So much has changed for me. But it feels like not much has changed for the wild. we’re still sort of struggling along with a team that can’t muster a damn even in front of their brand new goalie. The joys of being a Minnesota sports fan.
