Greetings from Medicine Hat, Alberta – home of the WHL champion Tigers. My wife and I were recently in your fine city to watch our Tigers play your Silvertips in the WHL playoffs. I just wanted to say we had a terrific time. You all were so hospitable. You really made us feel welcome.
We had some great conversations about hockey with some great hockey fans. To the two great waiters at The Keg restaurant by the Alderwood Mall, what a couple of nice guys, and thanks for the road map on the napkin. There were no problems getting back!
After the last game we talked to a lot of Silvertips fans and they congratulated us on the Tigers win, and several said they would be cheering for us to win the cup. Their reason? “We hate the Rockets!” That’s a good hockey answer. Well, we didn’t quite do it, we lost in the semi-finals. But we’re proud of our Tigers, as there is no doubt you are proud of your Silvertips. Wow, is that barn of yours loud, such a great atmosphere. Thanks, Everett. Maybe next year we’ll do it all over again.
