Are you sure we are allowed to go in there?

Sunday night we had a little surprise from some of our friends. They told us they had some extra tickets to the Avalanche preseason game and they wanted us to go with them. I will be honest I was not too thrilled to go, I was feeling quite lazy that day and the thought of sitting in tiny, hard seats with Matt in my lap while trying to keep Matt entertained to minimize the amount of mean looks from the people sitting around us; just did not sound like fun. Well....Steve convinced me to "chill" (He says that a lot to me, I can't imagine why?) and off we went to meet them for the game.


Well, the surprise comes now....they handed us the tickets and they were tickets for a suite. That's right a suite at the Colorado Avalanche game. A little private room. The whole wing of suites (pretty sure 'wing' is not the correct terminology) has a separate escalator that has people at the bottom of it in suits that check to make sure you are the elite and you have a suite ticket. I wasn't sure if they would let me in, since I had left my designer handbag, designer clothing, Gucci sunglasses and fur coat at home, but they actually did! And the door to the suite is locked and only our fancy tickets will unlock the door. I thought for sure my ticket was a fraud and it wouldn't unlock the door, but it actually did!





We had a suite view (get it! Play on words!! I am so clever)

I guess Steve thought we were going to a Broncos game because he wore his Broncos jersey.

I am pretty sure Matty will never be the same again. If we take him to a game in the regular seats he will scoff at the hard plastic. These seats were soft, padded, plush black leather.



And the Avalanche won. I am not much of a hockey fan, but I really do like going to sporting events, especially is they are in a suite. I can definitely get used to this. Although I won't get used to it, because it will never happen again, but I can dream.
