I was at the game where Winfield hit the seagull. Only people who were there will know what Winfield did the next inning. – Aethsie

Don’t leave us hanging!!!

Numerous curling events in Edmonton. Which if I do say these are the best events. See the guys all liquored up in the Brier patch and then curling 2 hours later.

I really want to go to a darts competition. It looks like the rowdiest sporting event out there.

Do Americans count the CFL as a sporting event?

Raptors in Toronto

Saw a rodeo in Calgary, although not the Stampede 🙁

A few WWF/WWE events

Too many OHL games to remember, went specifically to see McDavid a couple times

Homan and Bottcher at a curling mixed doubles this year

Canadian Open Golf

Saw Jai Alai in Tampa a long time ago

Final weekend in Boston vs. the Jays for the penant (Jay lost)

Too many Lightning games to count, but none in the last 20 years. Saw several during their inaugural season.

A couple of NFL Buccaneers games back in the late 70s during the orange and white era.

One Yankees spring training game in the late 90s.

One Rowdies MLS futbol match, also in the late 70s or early 80s.

I think that’s it. I love hockey, but don’t really get into other sports. I went to the baseball game because my weed dealer had free tix.

Edit : I went to a pro sprint-car race when I was a little kid. I don’t remember much except how loud it was and the smell of exhaust fumes.

The backstory:

We went with another couple to a Seattle Kraken game this year. One friend was so grateful for us organizing the trip (we saw the Bills murder the Seattle Seahawks a few days later!) she bought me a Seattle Kraken pint glass at the game.

We starting some beer-fueled talk, and I got the idea of getting a pint glass from every NHL arena I have seen a game at (19 and counting).

Then the idea expanded to a pint glass from “every sporting event you have attended and paid admission” (or at least were comped tickets).

This took me a while tonight, while watching the Hurricanes eliminate the Capitals.

List ‘em if you got ‘em.
