Hockey Night in Forney

My 8 year old son and I went to the Dallas Stars game last night at the AAC. I think he enjoyed it. We went with my step brother, my step father and my nephew. My son ran into a friend in Church last Sunday that told him about the fighting in professional hockey so he was ready to see some. The Stars got out to a quick lead and by the middle of the 3rd period were up 3-0. The play was pretty chippy and the atmosphere was right for the other team to lose their cool and take some revenge by fisticuffs since they couldn't score the normal way. There were a few scrums where a group of players would huddle and talk bad to each other but the refs would not let anything happen. It seems that those scrums were enough though because my son was happy with the outcome. He got to go to a hockey game and stay up late. He fell asleep in the car on the way home and I had to carry him upstairs and put him to bed. This morning we let him sleep in. After I took his sister and her friend to school I woke him up and had him bathe because he said it had been about 4 days since his last one. After he got ready we went to the donut shop for breakfast and then on to school.
