Thread: Hindsight=20/20...How BADLY Do You Regret...

the only regret I have was being out of town round 3. At least the upside was that when I went to the sports bar in Washington DC wearing my Kings jersey to watch the game, the bartender bought me a Smithwicks!

I went to every home game in the playoffs.
Also went to St. Louis for Game One of the Semifinals, and New Jersey for game Two of the Finals.

Spent soooo much money. (Yes, food cutbacks do work to balance the budget). And no hockey this season has worked too.
And it also helps I live about two miles from the studio, so I spend very little in gas money, ever.
Was it all worth it? Of course.

In the grand scheme of things does it matter that I went to all these games? Not at all.

What matters is that as fans we suffered through some of the worst hockey ever, only to be raised up on to the top podium together when it seemed so unlikely. How gratifying it has been for ALL of us, no matter if you were there or not.

HOLY ****

Was at a Reign game recently, and a couple of friends from my section (306) Dave and Jerry stopped by. Lappy and Tanners Uncle joined us, smiles all around....reminded me of June 11th, man I miss the Kings. I will never forget those days in June. Just hope we get to do it again.

Absolutely true.

I went to every home game except game 3 of the SCF and paid a **** load of money for them, it was totally worth it and I don't regret a thing. However I'm not sure I would have been able to pay for this season if there wasn't a lockout. Game 6 was one of the best experiences of my life.

Went to none of the games, watched them all on tv. Don't regret it at all. Still pretty sweet.
