WmsptWx Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Have a Bowling Stadium Series like the NHL. Stadium series needs to be put to pasture. The novelty of hockey in big stadiums has worn off. The only one left to do is Penguins vs Flyers in Beaver Stadium with the NHL designating fan sections down the line.

AO/NAO headed neg in early march, and PNA on the rise, says slow your role spring...MJO and poss SSW also thrown into mix says not so fast. What's the truth, I dunno, and once into mid march, I typically dont really care. If it cant snow, and stick around (which gets harder by the day....damn sun angle, I'm ready to move onto spring. Yes, i just said it. Harley has much better ROI fun wise, and while i love a wintery day like yall do, we've definitely wasted some prime time and the cold has been around, but not deep (as others have suggested in winter grading that's coming out). We've had much more winter than last year, so I'm ready to chalk it up as a minor victory and move along. I didn't get up north w/ sleds once again, although my bad as there's been about 5 weekends that one coulda rode up there. Not great but better than last year. we were up once back in Jan. and it was better than I anticipated. a little thin in the low areas but pretty nice on top. worth the trip. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you got up. I missed that period and thought we'd have more opps coming. Last 2 weekend peeps have been able to play on top, but not in lower elevations. Oh well, at least they are ready for next season (just put new batteries in both last week....not cheap). Hope all's well w/ you Kirby. I miss running the TC and web stuff from years past. Got to know a lot of good folks doing it. A fun group but no longer worth the time/effort...for me anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maine isn't looking good at this time and although Ontario just got some good snow I'm not sure what to think for that area by then either. just have to wait and see I guess. I do miss TC. there's a group on facebook that kinda took the place and its a good place to go for trail info but facebook isn't my favorite site to visit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how I play floor hockey, I do it for the hydration therapy that follows (pub less than mile from where we play). Good times w/ great friends.

What infrastructure aside from the stadium being made from an erector set needs to be done? I was always under the impression that the lack of hotels in the State College area was the only issue aside from one now deceased old codger not wanting ANYTHING but football cleats touching his precious grass.Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Combs on deck this spring. I heard the April 27th date for the Combs concert and was like "what?" It's probably going to be 40 degrees outside for that. Unless they plan on establishing a dome in the next two months (I am in State College just about every week, not seen crane one lol), they're going to freeze.Sent from my motorola edge 5G UW (2021) using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
