OT: My experience seeing the locker room, hanging out with the team/Eagles game!

[MrHockey1982]

So Yesterday, I unexpectedly got to hang out with the team at their buffet dinner/tailgate prior to the Eagles game, visit the locker room, and sit with the team at the Eagles game! Below are the pictures I took. I apologize for the blurriness of some of them as I was on a very limited time schedule:

I'd rather not get into the details but a friend of mine knows them personally so I was invited to hang out when I went to tailgate for the game. I wasn't prepared at all and when I went into the locker room I felt light headed hahaha!

Time to call LA.


That looks like a pretty cool experience. You did well to not pass out

LOL basically the whole team had a beer. Hartnell bought two rounds for everyone including me and my friends. Pretty awesome day!

Hold on a sec, did you get to meat Newbury!?

That would be a dream come true for me

He and Rosehill were there lol. Newbury is in one of the pictures but it's kind of hard to see him.

How did Jake even get up to go to the game? I thought McGinn gave him energy and he wasn't there right?

 

[RonHextall27]

What's with all the gear there during this break? Have they been practicing at WFC since last game? I thought they would spend most of their time at Skate Zone

Ha the whole team was there except for Vinny, Streit, Kimo, Ray, Hall, and Gill. Grossman is huge. Simmonds was pretty big too. Pretty much all of the guys in the stands that are wearing hats in the one picture are on the team as they were hoping people wouldn't recognize them. It was funny because I walked in with Hartnell and Jake and everyone recognized Hartnell and were calling out to him but no one knew who Jake was! I guess the hat really made a difference or no one really recognizes him.

That would be awesome. My only personal experience with pro hockey players was when my buddy and I babysat Mitch Lamoureaux's kid in the 90's.

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe they have two sets of equipment? I asked the guy that let me in that question but he was distracted and on the phone. The jersey that I was holding was their actual game jersey and it was much heavier than a replica.

They've had a busy break, a couple of them were in AC on Friday too.

They do.

 

[HartsyMania]

This is pretty much my wet dream.

I went into the Locker Room as a guest in April and they had jerseys hanging up then as well. They must just leave certain jerseys there all the time.

The Hall of Fame is for past players. That helmet is clearly there to honor the great Jody Shelley.

That's awesome man! When I went in the jerseys were just hanging on a rack in there. I'm guessing they were just cleaned.
