That'll be the most fun barn in the AHL.

I wouldn't set foot in West Abby... I have my principles! :twisted:

I kid bout dat dere, but not about that east/west thing, the difference is like night/day.

Seriously, next time you're out this way, check it out!

The Sikh religion dictates certain things.

The arena is just east of the Mason–Dixon line btw...

Season tickies?

Nah, but maybe Mëds will take me to a game or two.

I saw our farmboys there a coupla times when the Heat called the place home.

Literally bumped into the Steamer one time, damn is he short!

Built like a brick shithouse though.

Now, now, let's not start a war here. :D

BTW, Clearbrook doesn't exist anymore.

But when it did, I lived there for a few years.

I remember races down Sumas Mountain. Winner lived. Maybe that's exaggerating a wee bit.

Bradner is a nice area. Pretty much anything rural in North Abby is pleasant.

Yuppers!

Got cancelled last year due to Covid though.

I used to volunteer down there for the local cable (camerman).

Got the VIP treatment, got to go into the restricted areas, make trades with Russian pilots, etc.

Pretty cool. Remember seeing a harrier and the blackbird there one year. Miss going to it.

Is Snob Hill still in the NW past Clearbrook Elm?
