West Point @ RMC Hockey Game

[winchable]

Any of the RMC cadets or anyone in the Kingston area make it out to the game last night?
I saw it was a 3-3 tie, wondering if it was any good or if the fans were sleeping by the end of it.

I used to go all the time with my dad when we lived in Ontario.

I took my seven year old son and my dad to the game last night.  It was great fun with good esprit de corps shown by both schools.  The game was hard-hitting and the two "bands" were also fun.  It had the feel of a US college game.

The opening ceremony was a little sombre as a former West Point hockey team captain was killed in Afghanistan recently (a 1Lt).  There was a moment of silence for him before starting the game.

The energy level in the building was very high during the game, and the RMC OCdts and West Pointers were boisterous but well-behaved.  The US was leading 3-1 going into the 3rd period.  RMC tied it up with about 30 seconds left, and the whole 3rd period was very high energy.

Cheers,

2B
