Lightning fan clubs/fans from distant places

Greetings fellow Ligtning Ladies and Gents!

I'm a die-hard Ligtning fan an have been so since 04. I'm 33 years old and from Aarhus, Denmark and I became a fan by coincident really. My friend and I - after finishing High School - decided to go on a 3 months road trip around The United States. We went to Miami and we wanted to go to a NBA game - but there were none to attend. So we booked some tickets to a Lightning game through ticketmaster. We went and we had a great time - and oh... the game was the QF against Philly in the 03/04 cup run. We didn't realise that until we took a closer look at the tickets - when we were in our seats! I feel stupid and ashamed just thinking about how ignorent we were. Well - I just wanted to share.

I apologize for any bad English ;o)

Cheers all

Your English is better than my Danish. You're fine.

Grew up in WNY as a Sabers fan - moved South and was at the first Thrashers game in Atlanta. Always believed you should be a fan of the team where you live..

Moved to Tampa area (Palm Harbor) in 03, were season ticket holders on and off when we could afford it until we moved to Minnesota 2 years ago.

Still a Lightning fan. The Wild are ok.. go to games when I can but I've worn my Lightning jersey at both games in St Paul against the Bolts.

Moving back to the Tampa area this Summer... yaaaay!

Good evening my friends!

I'm a lightning fan from Finland. A long time ago i heard about this little guy called Marty. I started to watch him play and before i knew it i was hooked on Bolts. I have always liked these little dudes who prove everyone wrong and make it to the big league. Now after Marty is gone we have Johnson.

It’s great that hear from fans all over the world.

I’m from Sweden myself and I’ve always loved hockey even if I haven’t had the ability to watch the NHL and then in the 13/14 season I started watching it more but since I didn’t have a team I was just watching many different games but I really liked the Lightning but it wasn’t really until I found HF that I really became a diehard fan since it helped to have somewhere where you could meet other fans and talk about the team.

I'm having a tough time following the Bolts (and NHL) this season since I've become independent (not sure it's called this way in English) and ************* got closed... but well, hopefully in the playoffs I can start watching the games again

Became a fan thanks to NHL 06... St. Louis or Vinny (Can't recall) were on the Cover and decided that if they play for the Bolts and they're on the cover they must be pretty good
