although the sharks didn't have a victory for their last regular season home game, i had a fun time!! as i was walking through the front doors with erik, we noticed a lot of guys in nice suits standing to the workers who were handing out hats for fan appreciation day. erik turned to me and said, "is that jamison??" i stood on my tippy-toes, and was so surprised to see the president and ceo of the sharkies standing there!! once we got in, i walked right towards him and he shook my hand with both of his hands. i told him that i was very impressed with what he's done with the sharks organization, and that i hope the sharks do well in the playoffs!! i think he was impressed, because not too many people around us knew who he was. hee hee. and, i had my cute sharkie-head on, so i was like sharks super fan. hahahahahahhah!!

also, i talked with erik about luc robitaille and the sharks organization possibly mentioning that it was his last game. i'm sooooo happy that they took time before the game to honor him. i'm very proud of the sharks fans who gave him a standing o, followed by "luuuuuuuuuuc" chants. :) he's an amazing player, and even though he plays for a rival team, he's not a punk, so he's respected. after the game, i was almost brought to tears when the sharks players lined up and each took a moment to shake his hand. what a classy way to end an outstanding career.

i'm a little sad the sharkies lost...especially because they didn't score any points!! there's always a lot of energy in the building for fan appreciation day, but alas, there was no gary glitter to sing along to. i was also a little disappointed that i didn't get a cheech autograph last night. he was maybe the last guy to come out of the players parking lot, and i was pretty tired at that point. i was tired from work, it being a monday, and knowing i had to wake up early the next day for more work. he finally drove out, and all these little teenagers were screaming at him. and i'm not talking about regular screaming, i'm talking about haunted house, somebody's going to kill you type of scream. the high pitched crap that makes you want to rip someone's hair out. i'm pretty sure those dorks scared him off. and, it looked like his family was with him so i'm sure he just wanted to get home and hang out. drats. maybe another day!!

well, now it's playoff time, and i'm hoping the sharks get some rest and get pumped for nashville and whoever's after that!! go sharkies!!
