Chirping from the pine.
(00:09):
It's time to rage.
(00:31):
Welcome back everybody to a new episode of Chirping from the Pine. My name is Josh.
Here today with good buddy Adam.
That's true. I just want to quickly say, uh,
Troy Lyons.
Wow. Un-fucking-believable, man.
Put on one of the best seasons in Lyons history.
(00:53):
Shit the bed.
Go out in the first round.
First post I see on Reddit,
I want to die.
That shit was funny.
I really love the Detroit Lyons.
I'm not like a, I like Dan Campbell, man.
I think he's a hell of a guy.
I think he's a great coach.
I like the running backs.
I like fucking Jameer Gibbs a lot.
What's his name?
(01:14):
I'm on St. Ra or whatever.
He's cool too.
Yeah. I thought their team was fucking sick.
I'm like, this team is primed for a run.
Uh, and of course just shit the bed.
No.
Oh shit.
The fucking Eagles beat the Rams.
I did not see that one coming.
I thought the Rams were going to take it for sure.
What was the score?
28-22.
The tragedy complex is toast.
(01:36):
All right.
Wait, hold on.
It was what?
28 Eagles, 22 Rams.
Man, I hate how accurate the Vegas odds are.
Was that the score that they fucking predicted exactly?
I think it was like six and a half.
Damn.
I think it was six and a half.
It's like, how the fuck do they know, dude?
They just know.
It's rigged, man.
Yeah.
It's rigged.
(01:57):
Well look, 25-27.
I wonder what the fucking spread was on this one.
It was two points.
It was two?
Jesus fuck.
Yeah.
It was, I think it was one and a half because somebody was saying that there, it was going
to be a bullshit game where there was going to be some fuckery.
It was going to be determined by like a safety or some shit version or some stupid shit.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
Look it up.
(02:18):
Look it up.
Vegas odds.
I want to see real quick because I'm 90% sure Vegas had it as one and a half points.
Vegas odds, NFL divisional round.
All right.
Let's see here.
Okay.
So Chiefs and Texans was fucking nine and a half.
Okay.
What was the final score on that?
Chiefs and Texans was, oh, 14 to 23.
Fuck it was fucking nine.
(02:40):
It was exactly nine.
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
And then Lions and Commanders was eight and a half.
Okay.
So.
That's a sucker's bet though because it's like, you have to be a fucking moron to bet
against, at this point, you have to be a fucking moron to bet against the Chiefs.
It's like, oh man, if Chiefs are giving nine points, oh yeah, I'll take that.
Of course they fucking win.
(03:01):
Wait.
It was nine and a half?
For the Chiefs and Texans.
Oh, they covered.
They covered.
They covered.
It was nine.
It was nine.
Well, I mean, no, I mean for, if you bet for the Texans.
Oh yeah.
You would have won, but nevermind.
I thought, I thought the Chiefs covered, but whatever.
But notice how the fucking point spread was like on the fucking point, was on fucking point.
(03:25):
Yeah, it was.
And then the Bills, Ravens naturally.
It was one and a half.
One and a half, yeah.
Jesus Christ.
That's crazy.
I wonder what the, let's, okay, let's look at this.
Wait, who was giving the points?
Let me see.
Bills plus one and a half, Ravens minus one and a half.
Oh, they weren't even favored?
Oh fuck, dude.
Yeah.
And they won.
And they won, yeah.
They won by two.
Yeah.
So they covered.
(03:46):
Yeah, they did.
So.
I thought, okay, so my, my tragedy complex for, for sports did not apply for this.
It didn't work for LA.
It didn't work for the Rams.
You know what, it wasn't, there wasn't enough people that died though.
It was just monetary damages.
I think if there were, if it was like 10,000 people died in the fires, then they would
have won.
(04:07):
I need, I need to go to Vegas, dude.
I need to go to Vegas.
I need a futures bet on the Dodgers.
They're probably like minus 400 right now for.
Oh yeah.
They're going to minus 400 to be world series champs again.
And my, I'm applying the tragedy complex to the Dodgers.
They're going to be the first team in like 20 plus years since the 98 to 2000 Yankees
(04:28):
to go back to back.
I think.
Yeah.
Are you, are you, what are you looking at?
I was just looking at what next week's odds were for, okay.
So commanders and Eagles, the fuck the overrunners 48 and it's fucking four and a half is the
weird ass number.
That is a weird ass number.
So there's going to be some fuckery going on there.
(04:49):
Yeah.
And the bills and chiefs again, it's one and a half.
So there's going to be some like weird shit going on there.
I would have figured it would have been two and a half because I figured the chiefs would
be the last team to drive and then I feel like you'll go.
Yeah.
But two and a half tells me, or one and a half tells me that it's going to be two.
Um, fucker, maybe even fuck one, depending on what they're taking.
(05:11):
Uh, so I, I'm thinking, cause they were, somebody was talking shit about the officiating.
No, not the officiating, but you know how everybody's got that theory about the colors
that that when they, and that when they show the colors, it's going to predict who's going
to be in the super bowl.
And they did say based on the colors, they were thinking it's either going to be because
it's like, what was the logo colors?
(05:33):
What is this?
2025?
I feel like that's a sucker's way of like tricking people into, yeah, it is.
The colors are fucking, yeah, it's red, green and gold.
So what they're saying is, Oh, it was going to be Eagles and fucking chiefs.
So cause it was red, green, and then gold.
And then the chiefs will win because they have the extra color.
Where's the, uh, where's the, uh, where's the super bowl this year?
(05:54):
Is it in Indianapolis?
No, it's in New Orleans.
Oh, interesting.
Okay.
No, I will.
So I guess probably now is the time to do the plugs.
Yeah.
So that was a 15 minutes in.
No, that was a cold.
That was a cold cut.
Yeah.
Anyways, go to game rage magazine on Instagram, tick tock YouTube, game rage mag on Twitter
(06:15):
slash X.
You can follow Adam at all gas, no trash official on Instagram and YouTube.
You can also go to sub stack.com forward slash at all gas, no trash official.
All right.
So today we're going to talk about, uh, well, I went to a hockey game, went to an American
AHLV, I guess minor leagues of, uh, hockey and I had never been Katie had never been.
(06:36):
And so I got fucking, I will also say this.
I thought I got sweet deal tickets, discount tickets from my, one of my slave jobs, but
it turned out they're actually full.
No, they're not only full price.
I think I actually paid more than I fucking should have.
Oh, you got bamboozled.
Because the same seats three rows closer for a game coming up in March, which is star wars
(06:57):
night, which we're going to go to, uh, those tickets were like fucking $3 less.
And I'm like, get the fuck out of here.
So I have a feeling that this was all horse.
But anyway, so we go to this game and man, it was fucking fun as hell.
I will say this is more fun.
It was more fun even than going to an NHL game.
(07:18):
And I say that because a, the carny people that go to the fucking like minor league hockey
games are hilarious.
They're not like normies.
Like it's, it's honestly, I'm convinced it's normies that just go to like NHL games to
try to like fit in and like be cool, but they don't know shit about hockey.
(07:39):
And yeah, there were a couple of those there.
All right.
It's for the DGNs.
Yeah.
But this is where the degenerates go.
This is where the fucking, the straight up carny's go.
And man, it is a colorful cast of characters at the fucking games.
And so it was the Henderson silver Knights, which are the affiliate of Vegas golden Knights
versus the Ontario rain, which are the affiliate of the LA Kings.
(08:02):
So obviously Katie being a Kings fan, me being a silver Knights fan or golden Knights fan,
we decided to fucking go.
So we go and we get there.
We do our usual, our usual trickery.
Okay.
Even though I did this, I still ended up spending fucking like $150 on alcohol and I'm a little
(08:22):
pissed off, but I got bamboozled.
But see, that's where I fucked myself is I shouldn't have got any extra drinks.
I should have just drank more in the parking lot.
It's sitting there.
Also, what's hilarious is there's like no fucking people there.
All right.
The stadium was maybe like when we first got in, there was like a quarter full.
So we get there at four 30 gate, gate opens at five, right?
(08:44):
The doors open at five to go into the Toyota arena.
And I'll say that that Toyota arena is very nice.
It is a nice facility.
But I'd be interested to go watch some fucking wrestling there next time they're there because
even the nosebleeds were like, they're good seats still.
Like you're still like kind of the equivalent.
You remember, you know, at the crypto where you're in that like lower, like that middle
(09:06):
bowl area.
Yeah.
Like the two hundreds.
Yeah.
Like the two hundreds.
That's the nosebleeds for this place.
So like even nosebleeds are like still kind of good seats.
So I'd go to like all elderly wrestling next time they go there and see, you know, some
of our old nostalgia acts, fucking, you know, wrestle and break hips and stuff, you know,
for 40 bucks or whatever to sit in the nosebleeds.
(09:27):
Do you think people showed up late because by contrast of the NHL where you're paying?
Well, I don't know.
I mean, sitting in the nosebleeds for crypto arena for a Kings game is like 100 bucks.
Yeah.
And it's like three or four hundred to sit closer towards center ice.
(09:48):
Yeah.
You think it because people pay so much.
They're like, well, I better if I could show up at the first period because I paid so much
versus this is a low investment.
Therefore, you don't have to show up in the first period.
And so he's like, oh yeah, we'll come after we'll come after the first break.
Come back to for the second period.
Yeah.
Go to the second period.
(10:09):
I think the majority of the people that were there in actually in person were season ticket
holders.
Pretty much most of the people that I talked to in our section were season ticket holders
and season tickets.
You can get 10 fucking games for three hundred dollars.
That's pretty sweet, which is a sweet deal.
And you get to pick your fucking seats, too.
(10:31):
So and that's that's just 10 games.
So like that's just a little 10 game pack.
I imagine I don't know how many games they play in the NHL in their season.
I think they might play fucking 80 or somewhere close to there.
Maybe 62.
I don't know.
But they I mean, shit, a fucking 30.
(10:52):
You got to figure if they're playing 60 fucking games, you get half of those likely at home.
So for 30 for fuck for 30 games, if I could pay, I don't know, six hundred bucks or seven
hundred bucks to get season tickets in like the like glass area where we were at, because
we were five rows from the glass.
And I mean, we were like in the shit.
(11:12):
It was like right there.
And full transparency, even with fees through that fucking stupid fucking AXS app that you
have to use to buy the tickets, even with fees, the tickets for only 60 bucks.
So I hate that.
I do, too.
I hate that, too, because it was the tickets themselves were actually only like 50 dollars,
but I paid an extra like 10 dollars in fees.
Do they have like an actual box office that you can go to to just.
(11:34):
Yeah, they do.
Because I was talking to one of the ladies that was working.
They have a box office and then they have this booth where you can buy.
They had that's where they were advertising the season ticket deals and then like the
10 ticket game passes.
So I was just talking to them about it.
And then that was like, oh, cool.
And then I was just shooting the shit with them.
And I don't remember what they said about the season tickets because I was kind of drunk.
But I do remember that from the fucking the 10 the 10 pack deal was 300 bucks.
(11:58):
I was like, damn, that's cool because we were talking about it.
And I was like, you get to pick your games and your seats.
So I was like, I'm sure they play the the fucking Silver Knights probably two or three
times in the season.
And shit, we could pick those three games and then the other six games.
I was like, I'll just be a traitor and I'll just show up either with the team that they're
playing gear on, which now I think that's what I'm going to do, because I am an asshole.
(12:23):
And I will say it is much more fun to go to a game when you're rooting for the non home
team.
It is so much more fun.
And we'll get to that in a minute.
But so we get there.
We pregame it in the parking lot.
We go wait in line about fucking 450 and we're standing there and we're just the carny shit
(12:46):
has already started.
Like, there's this dude in front of me and he's wearing like he's wearing like a Syracuse
fucking college hat.
And then he's wearing like I don't know what jerseys where was so much jersey.
And so this dude next to him is decked out in all this Ontario rain shit.
And he's like, oh, look at this joker right here.
He don't know who to root for.
He might be confused.
(13:06):
And he said it was like a goddamn southern accent.
And I was like, I started laughing.
And then he's like, what do you say?
He's just talking about like, oh, look at you.
And I was like, yeah, man, but at least I know who I'm rooting for.
I don't worry matching gear.
Okay.
Like you can't say shit about me.
And he was like, oh, you got a point there.
And then I was like, hey, are you are you from like the south?
And he's like, no, I'm born and raised in the England Empire.
(13:28):
And I'm like, Jesus Christ, why you talk like that fool?
Like, that's weird.
So I'm like, all right, whatever.
So then shoot the shit with them.
And then we go in to the thing.
They let us in, dude, this is like the lowest security I've ever been to at a stadium, at
an arena.
There's literally those little scanner things, right?
You just walk through them and then like when it beeps, okay, go stand over there.
(13:50):
They're like, what do you got?
You got a handgun?
That's cool.
Put it in the bucket, walk through the thing.
No, they hand you an AR-15.
They're like, here, this is mandatory.
So we go through, no nothing.
Walk right in.
So every place we go to, Katie has to fucking get, like we have this clear bag because most
(14:12):
places have like a clear, like Angel Stadium is this fucking goddamn Nazis with the bags.
We purchased a bag, a backpack at Angel Stadium and they made us fucking take it to the car.
Like we bought it at the team store and we were walking around with stuff in it and they're
like, hey, how'd you get that in here?
And I was like, what do you mean?
And they're like, you can't have that.
And I was like, I bought it here.
(14:33):
And they're like, no, you can't have it though.
We have a clear bag policy.
And I was like, well, then why do you sell these then?
And they're like, no, you gotta take it.
So they made me go walk it out to the car and I'm like, okay, Nazi, fine.
So fuck whatever, the bag Nazi is at Angel Stadium.
So then, so she looked it up because she's like, oh, she has this really sweet, like
(14:54):
I bought her this thing for Christmas.
It's like a giant purse, but it's a LA Kings hockey jersey on the outside of it.
Like it's the sweater and it's fucking cool as shit.
And she got a bunch of compliments from people at the fucking place on it.
And so she was like, oh good, I can wear my Kings purse because they don't have a clear
bag policy.
And I was like, cool, we walk right in.
Yeah, I thought for sure we were gonna get stopped.
They didn't say shit.
(15:16):
One of them was like, oh, cool purse.
And we just kept walking.
So we go in and I'm like, hey, let's go like find our seats and see where we're at.
Just cause I was curious what five rows back looks like.
Cause we've sat five, six rows back at Staples Center or Crypto and it feels like it's further
away than this.
This feels closer.
I don't know how to explain it, but it feels like it's the, I think it's the, it's not
(15:38):
on that slope like it is in there.
It's more like it's a little less of a grade.
So they packed the seats in closer together and there's not a lot of space.
Cause you know, like when you get glass seats, there's like more room in the front between
you and the glass that does not exist there.
Your seats are on the fucking glass.
And so I feel like they cram more, they crammed more like spaces.
(15:59):
So you feel way closer.
And so anyways, we're like, cool, we know where we're at.
All right.
There's literally like not a lot of people in here.
So we're like, fucking let's go walk around and see what's up.
Oh, go ahead.
Did you have something to say?
Oh no.
So we go walk around and I'm like, oh man, I'm going to get another drink.
So I can go to the bar.
She had to pee, go to the bar and there's one convenient.
We were in section one 15 and I told her, I was like, dude, if we buy season tickets
(16:21):
to this place, we're getting section one 15.
Cause this fucking section is awesome.
And it's, it's everything's right there.
Like the bar is literally right outside there.
The bathroom is literally right outside there.
And there's like a fucking two food places right there.
And I'm like, this is the tips.
Like this is the, we got, we got lucky with this section.
Now we know.
So we go to the bar and the bartenders fucking whatever.
(16:43):
And I'm like, oh, let me get, Katie wanted a Sprite and rum.
So I get her Sprite and rum and then I wanted a gin and tonic.
So I'm like, all right, let me get that dude.
When she told me $50, I was like, Jesus fucking Christ.
That are we at fucking Angel Stadium right now?
Like for two drinks.
Oh, all right.
And then, and then they have the audacity to want to leave a tip.
And I'm like, well, fuck, if I come back and get another one, I don't, cause I was still,
(17:05):
I was drunk at this point.
So I was like, well, if I come back and get another one, I want them to piss in it.
So I better leave them $5.
Or give you a flat one.
Yeah, give me a shit one.
So give me a nut with no alcohol in it.
So I gave him $5.
So then we're like, whatever.
So then we were walking around and we found like all these cool little, little vendor
booths that they have there.
And it actually got me thinking for our other side project with the honey.
(17:27):
They had like outside organizations there, like with these little booths and they were
doing like this.
Cause it was like first responder night, which by the way, I did not plan for that.
And I'm very fucking, I was very pissed off to go to fucking piggy night.
Cause dude, I shit you not, man.
There were so many fucking assholes there with those goddamn mustaches.
(17:47):
And I just wanted to fucking punch him right in the face.
And also I was going to say, I think that the reason it even eventually got like half
full was because I think the people that came late were the people that didn't pay for their
tickets.
Cause I think they gave out a lot of free tickets to first responders shit, like cops
and like firefighter, like the, like the, how, whatever the cities and stuff around
(18:09):
there.
Um, so I think that's why it was only half, cause it was maybe at the peak in the, in
the, in the going into the third period is like half full.
And then the majority of the game though, it was only a quarter full, which was great.
And it's also great because you can yell and everyone hears you.
So like, if I say something, everybody in the stadium heard it.
(18:29):
And so I was fucking me and there was in my section, it was me and it was a lady and her
two kids were the only people rocking golden nights shit.
All right.
And these two motherfuckers in the front, they had Henderson silver nights shit on.
And I will tell you right now, the AHL teams are fucking up by making it so difficult to
(18:52):
get their shit and also not selling good shit.
By the way, there was not a single flex fit fucking hat.
Every fucking hat that they sell is a fitted snap or it's not a fit.
It's a snapback fucking hat and I cannot abide snapback hats.
First of all, I'm not a child.
Okay.
Only children wear fucking snapback hats.
Grown ass adults need either flex fit or fitted.
(19:12):
That's the only fucking way you should be wearing hats.
And so I was upset cause I told Katie, I was like, ah, maybe I'll get like a rain hat and
I'll just have you buy it.
And like, you know, when we come back again, I'll fucking like, I'll just wear that.
And then I'll just, if it's a team I don't care about, I'll just pretend to be a rain
fan the whole time and I'll just be obnoxious.
And then maybe people will be like, Hey, aren't you that asshole that was fucking yelling at
the Knights game that one time?
And I'll be like, nah, I never heard of them, you know, whatever.
(19:34):
So and then I'll come back when they play the Knights again and then fucking be an asshole.
So uh, so we go in their first period and man, I will tell you what, I don't know if
it's cause these guys are like trying to get into the league or like what, cause I've been
into minor league baseball games and it is not like this.
There is not this level of intensity that exists in minor league baseball.
(19:54):
Like some of those guys, you're like, do you even want to play professional baseball?
Like are you even trying right now?
These dudes, they were trying to murder each other at from the initial face off in the
first period.
They were literally three minutes in, they were throwing punches at in front of the goal,
the goalie a couple of times.
(20:14):
It's like three minutes in and the craziest part is that the Henderson silver Knights
are nine and 24.
Okay.
Going into this game, I forget what the rain's record was or is, but they were in like fourth
place in their fucking division or whatever.
And the silver Knights were 10th in dead last at nine and 24.
(20:36):
And so I thought for sure, I was like, man, they're going to fucking blow them out.
I'm going to get so much hate.
This is going to be crazy.
And sure as shit, dude, we went the whole fucking game almost zero, zero, and they were
beaten the fuck out of each other, dude.
They were, I had never seen so many dudes block shots before in my fucking life.
(20:57):
There were dudes that they were playing like this was game seven of the Stanley cup, man.
And I have to say, I dig it.
I fucking respect that shit.
These dudes are like, especially these assholes on the silver Knights, you're nine and 24.
You are not, you're not making the playoffs.
You've already, if you have 80 games in the season, you're eliminated.
Okay.
Right now you're done.
(21:17):
Yeah.
But you're in the perfect sport.
I think regardless of a win outcome, if things don't go in your way, you could take it out
on somebody else, you know, on the ice.
Like if you play for a minor league team, for a hockey team and your team is shit, Oh
fuck.
Oh well, you know, we're not playing for a championship or anything like that, but we
(21:39):
can fuck, we can fuck you up.
Yeah.
We can fuck your chance of winning up.
I'm injuring some of you guys and that's what they were trying to do, man.
And also the penalties.
Holy shit.
The blatancy of some of these penalties, dude, this guy, he straight up looked at the referee
as they were fucking flying and saw that the referee was right there and he takes his stick
and he literally grabs a dude's skate and just kicks him back and fucking slams him on
(22:04):
the ground.
I was like, Oh, that was fucking awesome.
And so yeah, there were a lot of penalties.
That was one thing that I feel like going to an NHL game, I didn't see as many penalties
as there were like in this shit.
And so anyways, throughout the game shit's happening and the refs are starting to call
more penalties on the rain and the audience is booing to the point where they're chanting
(22:28):
you suck refs.
This must be like a thing that they do in Ontario because they chanted you suck refs
a lot.
The children were screaming at the top of their lungs.
You suck.
That's actually kind of fucking cool.
And so then after that dies down and they're waiting to start the fucking the face off
from the penalty, right?
(22:49):
It dies down and it gets like, it gets real quiet.
And so I just yelled out, Hey refs, you're calling the game very well.
You're doing an excellent job.
I said some shit like that, right?
And I literally motherfuckers turned around and like looked back and I got booed like
a motherfucker.
(23:09):
And I was just like, Oh, come on.
Like they're doing a great job.
Like they need a raise.
Like and fucking when I, and then I started fucking, I started chirping at one of the
fucking guys on the rain and I was just like saying stupid shit.
I'd be like, Oh, I was like, Oh, you're a bomb.
Like, you know, I was just saying dumb shit.
And then some of the kids in our section like left and so I was like, Oh cool.
(23:33):
It's like mostly adults now.
So I did the line that I said like, Hey man, I subscribe to your only fans and I'd like
my money back please.
But I started popping some of those and people were laughing at that.
It was funny.
And so I was doing that.
One of the guys, I feel like one of the, I think one of the guys flipped me off like
that I was chirping at.
It's hard to tell because they got those fucking thick ass gloves on.
(23:53):
And I mean, but he was making it seem very obvious that he was trying to flip me off.
So that was funny.
And then there was this dude in front of us.
Okay.
And before I forget to in the road that we were in, we were in row E, which was the fifth
row back.
Right.
And our entire row, the whole game until the third period, me and Katie were the only motherfuckers
(24:13):
sitting in our row.
It was great.
Third period comes, six people showed up for some fucking reason, all nonrelated in separate
spots.
And of course what happens we're in seats, I think seven and eight and these two assholes
had seats nine and 10.
And what do they do?
They sit in seats, nine and 10.
And so I hate that so much.
(24:34):
Yeah.
I don't know if it's an implied universal rule that people understand, but if you have
an opportunity to sit away from people, giving the fact that given the fact that there's
you know, vacancies and other seats, why not just take the other fucking seat?
Yeah.
That was actually at the end of the second period.
And so when we got up and during intermission to go take a piss or whatever and Katie wanted
(24:58):
to smoke, I want to get some food for the third period.
When we walked out, I'm like, hey, we come back.
I kicked your purse over.
So let's just sit in six and seven because I am touching this fucking lady and it's bothering
me.
Like I can't, it's bothering me.
I can't do this.
And so we came back and just moved over and I'm like, why, why did you guys not just move
(25:19):
over?
Like it was in, it was the second period and like there was no one in our row.
You could have just been like, oh, hey, cool.
Oh, we're supposed to be in these two seats.
But you know what?
I don't want to, I don't want to, we're the only assholes in this row right now at this
point.
We'll just move over with the seat and then if these assholes show up, oh cool.
We'll move back if that's what happens, right?
Or maybe we'll move four rows, four seats down or hell you could have went two rows
(25:42):
forward where there was nobody sitting and sat in a better seat.
I don't know.
But they were also, it was very strange because at the beginning they checked our shit.
We went into our row, they checked it and there was a guy standing there and he checked
our shit to make sure that we were supposed to be in that section.
And that was it.
After the first period, no one was standing there checking shit anymore.
(26:03):
So I was like, oh, even if you buy fucking nosebleeds, you can fucking come down later
in the game and they don't check after the first initial window.
Once the puck drops, they're not there anymore.
They just don't even check.
So that was kind of cool.
And so we go out, I go get some food and what was really, really nice was that the food
(26:24):
there was actually affordable, man.
Like it was good.
Was it good?
They had.
OK, so I got this is what I ended up ordering because I was fucking drinking.
So I fucking ordered like a fucking animal.
But I got a thing of nachos.
I got a thing of loaded tater tots, which basically consisted of onions, chili, cheese,
and then some other kind of fucking sauce that they put on there was fucking amazing.
(26:48):
And then I got a thing of fries for Katie.
And then I got two waters and like a soda.
Forty fucking bucks for all that shit at Angel Stadium or at Crypto.
That should have been one hundred fucking dollars easy.
And they also had this sweet deal.
And I almost thought about getting it.
(27:08):
It was four burgers and four fries for forty dollars.
I was like, oh, I can smash four fucking cheeseburgers right now.
That's like I just take off the buns, fucking combine them all into one burger and just
fucking eat that whole thing for forty bucks.
Like, fuck, and I got four things of fries.
Give Katie two of the fries.
I'll take two of them.
Fucking that's a good deal.
And then I ended up saying like, oh, I kind of want to try a little bit of everything,
(27:28):
just see what's good.
Those tater tots were fucking amazing.
I don't know if they were the frozen ones from fucking Sam's Club or whatever.
I can't prove that.
But goddamn, they were fucking delicious.
The nacho cheese, granted, it's in the little cups or whatever.
And then they give you like jalapenos and stuff.
But and that was me ordering an extra cheese, too, by the way.
So that was like including that.
(27:51):
They just give you a little bag of Tostitos or whatever.
So it's not like that one was kind of like you can't really fuck this up.
It's it just is what it is.
And then it wasn't bad.
It was good for the price.
I think that nachos was like eight dollars.
Like that was like nothing.
And so I'm like, all right.
So that was cool.
Ate that.
And then.
Going into the third period, fucking everybody's going crazy.
(28:15):
Shit's happening.
So almost goal scoring opportunities take place.
And then finally, on a power play, the fucking Silver Knights dump one in and go up one,
one nothing.
And then the fucking whole thing.
And then it eventually ends.
Right.
So there was this guy sitting in front of us and he showed up in the third fucking period.
And he was clearly a season ticket holder because like he was talking to some other
(28:36):
dudes like, oh, like they know each other and shit, or they must get that 10 pack of
games every season or 20 pack or whatever.
And like they go.
Right.
So like they were there talking about, oh, he's oh, you're going to be here tomorrow
night because I guess they were playing some other team tonight on Sunday.
He's like, oh, yeah, I'll be here tonight.
He's like, cool.
This motherfucker.
All right.
This dude is wearing a Dallas Stars jersey and he's also wearing a Texas Rangers baseball
(28:58):
team hat.
OK, so I'm like.
What is wrong with you?
And there were quite a few people there that had that on their not.
It wasn't as rampant as some of the professional sports things I've been to.
But like, for example, there were some assholes that showed up with Anaheim Ducks jerseys.
(29:19):
There's a whole swath of them.
And I'm like, oh, is it Anaheim Ducks night tonight?
Like what?
What?
Why are you guys even here?
Why are you showing up with these fucking jerseys on?
All right.
I have a counterargument because you made you you make this point.
Yeah.
And you're the counterargument.
All right.
Because what if people are just appreciative of the sport itself and maybe the jerseys
(29:40):
don't really matter?
Sure, they affiliate with some other team outside the region.
But ultimately, above all else, because how do you think it orders for sports fans that
they like the sport first or love the sport first and then it's the team or it's vice
versa?
Because if it's if it's the other way around, it's always the team first.
If it's the other way around, if you just like the sport itself, then yeah, fuck.
(30:04):
I mean, what does it matter what these assholes wear?
So here's my counterargument to that.
If you're going to go to a game in person, just wear a regular fucking t shirt.
Why do you need to wear a fucking hockey sweater?
So it's to let you know that they are they're appreciative of another team and they like
hockey nonetheless, even if it is unaffiliated with the teams that are actually playing.
(30:28):
I think that's dumb as hell.
It's like when I go to games and I see dumb bitches wearing New York Yankees jerseys or
wearing Yankees hats and I'm like, why are you here?
They're not playing.
Neither of these teams are the Yankees.
So why are you fucking here?
Again, I get listen, I like hockey, too.
I like baseball.
If I'm going to go, let's say I were to go to like, I don't know, a fucking San Jose
(30:49):
Sharks game and they're playing the fucking Seattle Kraken.
All right, let's just say that I don't like either of those teams.
But if I'm in San Jose and they're playing or if I'm in Seattle and they're playing,
I'll go to a game.
But guess what I'm going to do?
I'm just going to wear regular ass fucking clothes.
I'm going to show up with my L.A. or my fucking Golden Knights jersey and my Golden Knights
gear because that's being an asshole.
(31:09):
All right.
You're doing that anyways.
So it's like you're doubling down by doing that.
No, because I'm wearing the shit of a team that's playing.
But I'm saying if you went to a game, if you went back to this Ontario rain bullshit.
Yeah.
And you just buy whatever team they're playing just to be an asshole.
I don't know about that.
It'd be funny if you were like something that's totally unrelated.
(31:31):
It'd be so funny if you had if you had like a Washington generals jersey because, you
know, like Harlem Globetrotters play all the time and they're fake.
Like that would be fun because they always lose.
So here's an instance where I thought this happened, where it was funny.
So we in there and there's this chick and she has this fucking this.
(31:52):
It's a beers jersey, which the Milwaukee beers or wherever the fuck they were from in the
goddamn baseball.
But it's from baseball.
It's a team that they were and she has it's a Cooper, Cooper fucking beers jersey.
And I'm like, holy shit, I've never seen one of these before in my life.
I didn't know they fucking made them.
I love baseball.
90 percent of the fucking inside jokes that like me and Frank have are from baseball,
(32:16):
the movie.
And most of the things I say are from baseball, the movie or referencing it in some way.
And so I something happened.
I don't know what it was, but like she dropped something or it was like something went in
some way.
And I was like, oh, yeah, now you got to fetch the ball, bitch.
And it's like, it's like and then she looked at me like, I'm sorry.
And then I was like, what else?
(32:37):
I said so I was like, I said another line for like the movie and I keep saying these
lines and they look at me like I was retarded.
And I'm like, oh, you've never fucking seen that movie because I was like, oh, you know,
like from baseball and they were just like, what?
And I'm like, I got to go.
I just turned around and walked away because I was so impressed and so disappointed at
the same fucking time, man.
(32:57):
Like my theory, my theory is that that person acquired the jersey from a thrift shop and
they just thought, yeah, it looked cool because it does look cool.
But do they know what it's in reference to?
Probably not.
So they just, you know.
Well, that goes back again to my point.
Don't even don't wear jerseys if you don't know what they're about or don't wear them
(33:18):
teams that aren't playing.
Also, there were some assholes wearing Philadelphia Eagles shit.
This is that's football.
What do you say about that?
What if what if somebody was wearing a Kevin Smith, you know, Fat Man hockey jersey?
Because you know, it's like the it's not the Edmonton Oilers or maybe it is because it
is orange and blue.
(33:40):
It's like an Edmonton Oilers jersey.
Yeah, but he changed the logo.
That's acceptable.
If you were to wear some like if there was a guy that was wearing this like Darth Vader
like hockey jersey, that's also acceptable.
It's a hockey jersey, but it's not related to any specific team that's fucking around.
Right.
Those are allowed.
(34:00):
I'd be OK with that.
Hell, if you want to wear a football jersey that was like a fucking Star Wars or a Captain
America football.
I'm cool.
I'm cool with that.
I'd be down with that.
That's just to me.
That's the equivalent of just wearing a Star Wars t-shirt.
Right.
Yeah.
Like if I go to a hockey game and I just wear a Star Wars t-shirt.
OK, cool.
I'm not like I'm just there to do whatever.
Like I'm not or if I'm wearing like an Under Armour hat or an Under Armour shirt.
(34:21):
All right.
Like whatever.
I just I think it's like.
Insane to wear a team that's not even fucking playing to go watch them play.
And again, if your excuse is that you like hockey, that's cool.
Go to the fucking go to the like the Ducks guys, go to the Ducks fucking.
I don't know who their fucking minor league affiliate is.
(34:41):
Go to those fucking things.
Go to the goddamn Ducks games then don't fucking be coming over here wearing your dumb shit.
Just wear to wear a fucking regular t-shirt, you son of a bitch.
I don't get it.
I don't fucking get it.
But nonetheless, outside of that or don't wear your Dallas Stars jersey with your also
don't mix and match the sports that fucking that's insane, too.
(35:03):
All right.
Don't be mixing matches of sports coming to a sporting event.
Don't be wearing a hockey jersey with a baseball fucking team hat or like a NBA jersey with
like a goddamn fucking New England Patriots hat or some shit.
All right, man.
Better yet, a fucking NASCAR jacket.
Oh, man, that would actually be funny though.
NASCAR jacket with some other bullshit going on.
NASCAR jacket with an Andre Agassi fucking hat.
(35:24):
Yeah, see, that would be funny though.
That's funny.
That's not that's these people are like they're not doing it to be funny.
They're fucking just they're stupid.
Like, that's what it is.
That's my that's like NPC behavior right there.
I feel like, dude, there was this guy.
That would show up at this pizza place.
I don't know why talking about people that combine things that shouldn't go together,
(35:49):
even though in theory it technically would go.
Together in color theory because red and yellow are kind of in the same spectrum.
Yeah, this guy used to wear.
I think he used to wear a fucking San Francisco 49ers jersey underneath and he had a four
year fucking Lakers jersey jersey on top.
It was the strangest thing ever.
(36:10):
It was just such an eyesore.
But I don't know, man.
People just roll that way, I guess.
I guess, but anyway, 10 out of 10 would recommend.
All right, would bang this.
This is this fucking this going to on Ontario Rain game fucks.
All right.
(36:31):
It's cool as hell.
It's fun.
I'm still I definitely think that we're going to be getting like we're definitely going
to that Star Wars night fucking game for sure.
And I don't know how late it is in their season.
I mean, it's probably about halfway through because they're fucking whatever fucking nine
and fucking 20 for 10 and 24 now.
So they played what?
(36:52):
Thirty four games, 35 games.
So they're probably like maybe halfway through the season.
So probably next season we'll end up getting like one of those 10 or I'll find like some
kind of a pack to get like tickets and shit.
And yeah, that'd be kind of cool because it's cheap.
It's affordable.
It's not I can't go get shit if I wanted to get like a 10 game like I think Brian was
telling me he bought that those three pack of tickets for that 10 game, three pack of
(37:16):
ticket things.
And it was like it's like three grand or some shit.
And it's like, fuck, that's a lot of money, man.
Three hundred bucks a game.
So fuck, if I could get three hundred bucks for fucking 10 games, that's a that's a hell
of a deal.
So I'd be down.
I'd do it.
Oh, yeah.
So it's going to happen.
And then I'm still on the jury still out if I'm going to actually get that's going to
(37:40):
get pricey if I got to get other teams shit every single time they play somebody different.
I may just fucking wear an Ontario rain hat if I can find one.
You got to pick your battles on what looks cooler is acceptable.
If I can find a cool one, like if they have a cool ass team name like the trash pandas
for like the angels, right?
Yeah.
Like if the minor league team has a cool ass name like that that I could wear outside of
(38:00):
that.
OK, cool.
I justify wearing the New Mexico jackass.
That would be fucking cool as hell.
I got to look and see what other teams are in the goddamn minor, the fucking A.H.L.
or whatever.
We'll see A.H.L.
I'm just curious to see team directory.
Oh, man, they're all fucking bullshit names.
The Abbotsford Canucks.
Oh, man, look at this guy.
He's just like a dude with a beanie on lumberjack.
(38:23):
Oh, man, the Bakersfield Condors.
Look how poverty the website is, man.
This is so poverty.
The Belleville Senators.
Wow, that's that's where that's very that looks like that looks like Angola's flag.
Oh, man, then we got the Bridgeport Islanders.
The Calgary Wranglers.
Oh, what a.
(38:44):
Oh, what is this?
The Charlotte Checkers.
That's cool.
What the fuck's a checker?
Maybe it's a badger.
Oh, maybe it's some kind of like a species of badger.
The Chicago Wolves.
That's kind of cool.
Looks crappy.
The Cleveland Monsters.
That's fucking hilarious.
It looks like Godzilla peeking his head out of the water.
(39:04):
The Coachella Valley Firebirds.
Oh, no way, dude.
I didn't even know they had a minor league team.
Jesus, I wonder where the fuck it's in Palm Desert.
God damn.
The Colorado Eagles.
Oh, yeah, that's who they're playing on the Star Wars night.
And then they got all the Grand Rapids Griffins.
Man, do you know what this looks like?
This looks like they made this with an Envato Elements file like that.
(39:25):
Looks like that's exactly what it looks like.
The Hartford Wolf Pack.
There's the Henderson Silver Knights.
Then you got the Hershey Bears, man.
The Hershey Pennsylvania Bears.
What a missed opportunity.
They could have been called the Hershey Squirts, dude.
That's fucking whack.
And then their mascot could have been like a little dude, like because he's a squirt,
(39:49):
or like a lemon that like squirts fucking shit.
The Hershey Bars.
The Iowa Wild.
Oh, that's whack.
That's so stupid.
Laval Rocket.
That's kind of cool.
Why is it singular?
And why the fuck does it have nothing to do with the rocket?
It's just an R.
It's just an R, man.
(40:10):
Like that's dumb.
Why does it have the Austrian flag behind it?
Yeah, that is weird.
I think that's the Montreal flag because they're related to the Montreal Canadiens.
There you go.
The Ley Valley Phantoms.
Oh, man, it looks like like a bootleg Gengar or whatever.
That's cool.
And then you got the Manitoba Moose.
Wow.
The Milwaukee Admirals.
But he's like a pirate.
(40:32):
That's interesting.
Oh, no, they are the Ontario Reign with that old style Kings logo.
Yeah, that's cool.
I like that.
The Providence Bruins.
Wow.
It's just the Boston Bruins.
We took off the little bottom part.
Wow.
That's fucking that's AIDS.
Oh shit.
The Rochester Americans.
(40:53):
Rockford Ice Hogs.
Oh, that's kind of cool.
Fucking Ice Hogs, man.
San Diego Gulls.
What a shitty mascot, a seagull.
I don't know, man.
That's just San Jose Barracuda.
Oh shit.
They're all in the same area.
That's crazy.
Like how they move down the the food chain.
(41:15):
Shark Barracuda.
Yeah, Tuna.
They're like, what else we got?
What's a predatory fish?
Salmon.
No.
Springfield Thunderbirds.
Oh, dude, the Syracuse Crunch.
The Hershey Crunch.
The Hershey Squirts Crunch bars.
Oh, yeah.
Look at that.
Texas Stars.
Texas Stars.
(41:36):
Couldn't even fucking come up with a new name.
What is this?
The Toronto Marlies.
The fuck is a Marley?
That's very strange.
I don't know about that.
The Tucson Roadrunners.
That's pretty funny.
Utica Comets.
Utica.
Where's that at?
New York.
Oh, look at that.
(41:57):
This one has a hyphenated name.
It's a hyphenated and slash name.
The Wilkes Bar slash Scranton's Penguins.
That's too much.
Too much.
That's it.
It's all the AHL teams.
Fucking not that many.
The only reason I would vaguely be interested in going to a game is because the poke spot
that I go to is like, it's less than it's probably less than three miles or a mile next
(42:22):
to the Toyota Arena.
That's pretty cool.
Well, I guess we'll see.
Maybe we'll go to a game.
Maybe I'll buy that 10 pack and you and me can go to one or something and then fucking
we can fuck about.
Get into trouble.
Anyways, when we were waiting in line, the guy said something to me.
(42:47):
Some guy said something to me about wearing the fucking being a fucking Golden Knights
fan or some shit.
I said, oh, you got to get up out of here.
And I said, I looked at it.
I looked around and I said, huh, you know, I've been ejected from nicer establishments.
It was like, oh, what?
And I was like, that's true.
So anyways, all right.
Well, that'll be the end of this one.
(43:07):
So I can cat go to game rage magazine on Instagram, YouTube, Tik Tok, go to game rage mag on Twitter,
go to see all gas, no trash official on Instagram.
You can follow Adam there on YouTube as well and at substack.com forward slash at all gas,

Kurt Angle.
(43:28):
Kurt Angle made his fucking debut again.
He redebuted.
He's been injured.
He's out been on the fucking deal.
We thought he was gone forever, but he's back again.
So anyways, all right.
Well, that'd be it for the rest of us.
Catch you guys on the next one.
(43:55):
That was chirping from the pine.

Chirping from the pine.
(00:09):
It's time to rage.
(00:31):
Welcome back everybody to a new episode of Chirping from the Pine. My name is Josh.
Here today with good buddy Adam.
That's true. I just want to quickly say, uh,
Troy Lyons.
Wow. Un-fucking-believable, man.
Put on one of the best seasons in Lyons history.
(00:53):
Shit the bed.
Go out in the first round.
First post I see on Reddit,
I want to die.
That shit was funny.
I really love the Detroit Lyons.
I'm not like a, I like Dan Campbell, man.
I think he's a hell of a guy.
I think he's a great coach.
I like the running backs.
I like fucking Jameer Gibbs a lot.
What's his name?
(01:14):
I'm on St. Ra or whatever.
He's cool too.
Yeah. I thought their team was fucking sick.
I'm like, this team is primed for a run.
Uh, and of course just shit the bed.
No.
Oh shit.
The fucking Eagles beat the Rams.
I did not see that one coming.
I thought the Rams were going to take it for sure.
What was the score?
28-22.
The tragedy complex is toast.
(01:36):
All right.
Wait, hold on.
It was what?
28 Eagles, 22 Rams.
Man, I hate how accurate the Vegas odds are.
Was that the score that they fucking predicted exactly?
I think it was like six and a half.
Damn.
I think it was six and a half.
It's like, how the fuck do they know, dude?
They just know.
It's rigged, man.
Yeah.
It's rigged.
(01:57):
Well look, 25-27.
I wonder what the fucking spread was on this one.
It was two points.
It was two?
Jesus fuck.
Yeah.
It was, I think it was one and a half because somebody was saying that there, it was going
to be a bullshit game where there was going to be some fuckery.
It was going to be determined by like a safety or some shit version or some stupid shit.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
Look it up.
(02:18):
Look it up.
Vegas odds.
I want to see real quick because I'm 90% sure Vegas had it as one and a half points.
Vegas odds, NFL divisional round.
All right.
Let's see here.
Okay.
So Chiefs and Texans was fucking nine and a half.
Okay.
What was the final score on that?
Chiefs and Texans was, oh, 14 to 23.
Fuck it was fucking nine.
(02:40):
It was exactly nine.
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
And then Lions and Commanders was eight and a half.
Okay.
So.
That's a sucker's bet though because it's like, you have to be a fucking moron to bet
against, at this point, you have to be a fucking moron to bet against the Chiefs.
It's like, oh man, if Chiefs are giving nine points, oh yeah, I'll take that.
Of course they fucking win.
(03:01):
Wait.
It was nine and a half?
For the Chiefs and Texans.
Oh, they covered.
They covered.
They covered.
It was nine.
It was nine.
Well, I mean, no, I mean for, if you bet for the Texans.
Oh yeah.
You would have won, but nevermind.
I thought, I thought the Chiefs covered, but whatever.
But notice how the fucking point spread was like on the fucking point, was on fucking point.
(03:25):
Yeah, it was.
And then the Bills, Ravens naturally.
It was one and a half.
One and a half, yeah.
Jesus Christ.
That's crazy.
I wonder what the, let's, okay, let's look at this.
Wait, who was giving the points?
Let me see.
Bills plus one and a half, Ravens minus one and a half.
Oh, they weren't even favored?
Oh fuck, dude.
Yeah.
And they won.
And they won, yeah.
They won by two.
Yeah.
So they covered.
(03:46):
Yeah, they did.
So.
I thought, okay, so my, my tragedy complex for, for sports did not apply for this.
It didn't work for LA.
It didn't work for the Rams.
You know what, it wasn't, there wasn't enough people that died though.
It was just monetary damages.
I think if there were, if it was like 10,000 people died in the fires, then they would
have won.
(04:07):
I need, I need to go to Vegas, dude.
I need to go to Vegas.
I need a futures bet on the Dodgers.
They're probably like minus 400 right now for.
Oh yeah.
They're going to minus 400 to be world series champs again.
And my, I'm applying the tragedy complex to the Dodgers.
They're going to be the first team in like 20 plus years since the 98 to 2000 Yankees
(04:28):
to go back to back.
I think.
Yeah.
Are you, are you, what are you looking at?
I was just looking at what next week's odds were for, okay.
So commanders and Eagles, the fuck the overrunners 48 and it's fucking four and a half is the
weird ass number.
That is a weird ass number.
So there's going to be some fuckery going on there.
(04:49):
Yeah.
And the bills and chiefs again, it's one and a half.
So there's going to be some like weird shit going on there.
I would have figured it would have been two and a half because I figured the chiefs would
be the last team to drive and then I feel like you'll go.
Yeah.
But two and a half tells me, or one and a half tells me that it's going to be two.
Um, fucker, maybe even fuck one, depending on what they're taking.
(05:11):
Uh, so I, I'm thinking, cause they were, somebody was talking shit about the officiating.
No, not the officiating, but you know how everybody's got that theory about the colors
that that when they, and that when they show the colors, it's going to predict who's going
to be in the super bowl.
And they did say based on the colors, they were thinking it's either going to be because
it's like, what was the logo colors?
(05:33):
What is this?
2025?
I feel like that's a sucker's way of like tricking people into, yeah, it is.
The colors are fucking, yeah, it's red, green and gold.
So what they're saying is, Oh, it was going to be Eagles and fucking chiefs.
So cause it was red, green, and then gold.
And then the chiefs will win because they have the extra color.
Where's the, uh, where's the, uh, where's the super bowl this year?
(05:54):
Is it in Indianapolis?
No, it's in New Orleans.
Oh, interesting.
Okay.
No, I will.
So I guess probably now is the time to do the plugs.
Yeah.
So that was a 15 minutes in.
No, that was a cold.
That was a cold cut.
Yeah.
Anyways, go to game rage magazine on Instagram, tick tock YouTube, game rage mag on Twitter
(06:15):
slash X.
You can follow Adam at all gas, no trash official on Instagram and YouTube.
You can also go to sub stack.com forward slash at all gas, no trash official.
All right.
So today we're going to talk about, uh, well, I went to a hockey game, went to an American
AHLV, I guess minor leagues of, uh, hockey and I had never been Katie had never been.
(06:36):
And so I got fucking, I will also say this.
I thought I got sweet deal tickets, discount tickets from my, one of my slave jobs, but
it turned out they're actually full.
No, they're not only full price.
I think I actually paid more than I fucking should have.
Oh, you got bamboozled.
Because the same seats three rows closer for a game coming up in March, which is star wars
(06:57):
night, which we're going to go to, uh, those tickets were like fucking $3 less.
And I'm like, get the fuck out of here.
So I have a feeling that this was all horse.
But anyway, so we go to this game and man, it was fucking fun as hell.
I will say this is more fun.
It was more fun even than going to an NHL game.
(07:18):
And I say that because a, the carny people that go to the fucking like minor league hockey
games are hilarious.
They're not like normies.
Like it's, it's honestly, I'm convinced it's normies that just go to like NHL games to
try to like fit in and like be cool, but they don't know shit about hockey.
(07:39):
And yeah, there were a couple of those there.
All right.
It's for the DGNs.
Yeah.
But this is where the degenerates go.
This is where the fucking, the straight up carny's go.
And man, it is a colorful cast of characters at the fucking games.
And so it was the Henderson silver Knights, which are the affiliate of Vegas golden Knights
versus the Ontario rain, which are the affiliate of the LA Kings.
(08:02):
So obviously Katie being a Kings fan, me being a silver Knights fan or golden Knights fan,
we decided to fucking go.
So we go and we get there.
We do our usual, our usual trickery.
Okay.
Even though I did this, I still ended up spending fucking like $150 on alcohol and I'm a little
(08:22):
pissed off, but I got bamboozled.
But see, that's where I fucked myself is I shouldn't have got any extra drinks.
I should have just drank more in the parking lot.
It's sitting there.
Also, what's hilarious is there's like no fucking people there.
All right.
The stadium was maybe like when we first got in, there was like a quarter full.
So we get there at four 30 gate, gate opens at five, right?
(08:44):
The doors open at five to go into the Toyota arena.
And I'll say that that Toyota arena is very nice.
It is a nice facility.
But I'd be interested to go watch some fucking wrestling there next time they're there because
even the nosebleeds were like, they're good seats still.
Like you're still like kind of the equivalent.
You remember, you know, at the crypto where you're in that like lower, like that middle
(09:06):
bowl area.
Yeah.
Like the two hundreds.
Yeah.
Like the two hundreds.
That's the nosebleeds for this place.
So like even nosebleeds are like still kind of good seats.
So I'd go to like all elderly wrestling next time they go there and see, you know, some
of our old nostalgia acts, fucking, you know, wrestle and break hips and stuff, you know,
for 40 bucks or whatever to sit in the nosebleeds.
(09:27):
Do you think people showed up late because by contrast of the NHL where you're paying?
Well, I don't know.
I mean, sitting in the nosebleeds for crypto arena for a Kings game is like 100 bucks.
Yeah.
And it's like three or four hundred to sit closer towards center ice.
(09:48):
Yeah.
You think it because people pay so much.
They're like, well, I better if I could show up at the first period because I paid so much
versus this is a low investment.
Therefore, you don't have to show up in the first period.
And so he's like, oh yeah, we'll come after we'll come after the first break.
Come back to for the second period.
Yeah.
Go to the second period.
(10:09):
I think the majority of the people that were there in actually in person were season ticket
holders.
Pretty much most of the people that I talked to in our section were season ticket holders
and season tickets.
You can get 10 fucking games for three hundred dollars.
That's pretty sweet, which is a sweet deal.
And you get to pick your fucking seats, too.
(10:31):
So and that's that's just 10 games.
So like that's just a little 10 game pack.
I imagine I don't know how many games they play in the NHL in their season.
I think they might play fucking 80 or somewhere close to there.
Maybe 62.
I don't know.
But they I mean, shit, a fucking 30.
(10:52):
You got to figure if they're playing 60 fucking games, you get half of those likely at home.
So for 30 for fuck for 30 games, if I could pay, I don't know, six hundred bucks or seven
hundred bucks to get season tickets in like the like glass area where we were at, because
we were five rows from the glass.
And I mean, we were like in the shit.
(11:12):
It was like right there.
And full transparency, even with fees through that fucking stupid fucking AXS app that you
have to use to buy the tickets, even with fees, the tickets for only 60 bucks.
So I hate that.
I do, too.
I hate that, too, because it was the tickets themselves were actually only like 50 dollars,
but I paid an extra like 10 dollars in fees.
Do they have like an actual box office that you can go to to just.
(11:34):
Yeah, they do.
Because I was talking to one of the ladies that was working.
They have a box office and then they have this booth where you can buy.
They had that's where they were advertising the season ticket deals and then like the
10 ticket game passes.
So I was just talking to them about it.
And then that was like, oh, cool.
And then I was just shooting the shit with them.
And I don't remember what they said about the season tickets because I was kind of drunk.
But I do remember that from the fucking the 10 the 10 pack deal was 300 bucks.
(11:58):
I was like, damn, that's cool because we were talking about it.
And I was like, you get to pick your games and your seats.
So I was like, I'm sure they play the the fucking Silver Knights probably two or three
times in the season.
And shit, we could pick those three games and then the other six games.
I was like, I'll just be a traitor and I'll just show up either with the team that they're
playing gear on, which now I think that's what I'm going to do, because I am an asshole.
(12:23):
And I will say it is much more fun to go to a game when you're rooting for the non home
team.
It is so much more fun.
And we'll get to that in a minute.
But so we get there.
We pregame it in the parking lot.
We go wait in line about fucking 450 and we're standing there and we're just the carny shit
(12:46):
has already started.
Like, there's this dude in front of me and he's wearing like he's wearing like a Syracuse
fucking college hat.
And then he's wearing like I don't know what jerseys where was so much jersey.
And so this dude next to him is decked out in all this Ontario rain shit.
And he's like, oh, look at this joker right here.
He don't know who to root for.
He might be confused.
(13:06):
And he said it was like a goddamn southern accent.
And I was like, I started laughing.
And then he's like, what do you say?
He's just talking about like, oh, look at you.
And I was like, yeah, man, but at least I know who I'm rooting for.
I don't worry matching gear.
Okay.
Like you can't say shit about me.
And he was like, oh, you got a point there.
And then I was like, hey, are you are you from like the south?
And he's like, no, I'm born and raised in the England Empire.
(13:28):
And I'm like, Jesus Christ, why you talk like that fool?
Like, that's weird.
So I'm like, all right, whatever.
So then shoot the shit with them.
And then we go in to the thing.
They let us in, dude, this is like the lowest security I've ever been to at a stadium, at
an arena.
There's literally those little scanner things, right?
You just walk through them and then like when it beeps, okay, go stand over there.
(13:50):
They're like, what do you got?
You got a handgun?
That's cool.
Put it in the bucket, walk through the thing.
No, they hand you an AR-15.
They're like, here, this is mandatory.
So we go through, no nothing.
Walk right in.
So every place we go to, Katie has to fucking get, like we have this clear bag because most
(14:12):
places have like a clear, like Angel Stadium is this fucking goddamn Nazis with the bags.
We purchased a bag, a backpack at Angel Stadium and they made us fucking take it to the car.
Like we bought it at the team store and we were walking around with stuff in it and they're
like, hey, how'd you get that in here?
And I was like, what do you mean?
And they're like, you can't have that.
And I was like, I bought it here.
(14:33):
And they're like, no, you can't have it though.
We have a clear bag policy.
And I was like, well, then why do you sell these then?
And they're like, no, you gotta take it.
So they made me go walk it out to the car and I'm like, okay, Nazi, fine.
So fuck whatever, the bag Nazi is at Angel Stadium.
So then, so she looked it up because she's like, oh, she has this really sweet, like
(14:54):
I bought her this thing for Christmas.
It's like a giant purse, but it's a LA Kings hockey jersey on the outside of it.
Like it's the sweater and it's fucking cool as shit.
And she got a bunch of compliments from people at the fucking place on it.
And so she was like, oh good, I can wear my Kings purse because they don't have a clear
bag policy.
And I was like, cool, we walk right in.
Yeah, I thought for sure we were gonna get stopped.
They didn't say shit.
(15:16):
One of them was like, oh, cool purse.
And we just kept walking.
So we go in and I'm like, hey, let's go like find our seats and see where we're at.
Just cause I was curious what five rows back looks like.
Cause we've sat five, six rows back at Staples Center or Crypto and it feels like it's further
away than this.
This feels closer.
I don't know how to explain it, but it feels like it's the, I think it's the, it's not
(15:38):
on that slope like it is in there.
It's more like it's a little less of a grade.
So they packed the seats in closer together and there's not a lot of space.
Cause you know, like when you get glass seats, there's like more room in the front between
you and the glass that does not exist there.
Your seats are on the fucking glass.
And so I feel like they cram more, they crammed more like spaces.
(15:59):
So you feel way closer.
And so anyways, we're like, cool, we know where we're at.
All right.
There's literally like not a lot of people in here.
So we're like, fucking let's go walk around and see what's up.
Oh, go ahead.
Did you have something to say?
Oh no.
So we go walk around and I'm like, oh man, I'm going to get another drink.
So I can go to the bar.
She had to pee, go to the bar and there's one convenient.
We were in section one 15 and I told her, I was like, dude, if we buy season tickets
(16:21):
to this place, we're getting section one 15.
Cause this fucking section is awesome.
And it's, it's everything's right there.
Like the bar is literally right outside there.
The bathroom is literally right outside there.
And there's like a fucking two food places right there.
And I'm like, this is the tips.
Like this is the, we got, we got lucky with this section.
Now we know.
So we go to the bar and the bartenders fucking whatever.
(16:43):
And I'm like, oh, let me get, Katie wanted a Sprite and rum.
So I get her Sprite and rum and then I wanted a gin and tonic.
So I'm like, all right, let me get that dude.
When she told me $50, I was like, Jesus fucking Christ.
That are we at fucking Angel Stadium right now?
Like for two drinks.
Oh, all right.
And then, and then they have the audacity to want to leave a tip.
And I'm like, well, fuck, if I come back and get another one, I don't, cause I was still,
(17:05):
I was drunk at this point.
So I was like, well, if I come back and get another one, I want them to piss in it.
So I better leave them $5.
Or give you a flat one.
Yeah, give me a shit one.
So give me a nut with no alcohol in it.
So I gave him $5.
So then we're like, whatever.
So then we were walking around and we found like all these cool little, little vendor
booths that they have there.
And it actually got me thinking for our other side project with the honey.
(17:27):
They had like outside organizations there, like with these little booths and they were
doing like this.
Cause it was like first responder night, which by the way, I did not plan for that.
And I'm very fucking, I was very pissed off to go to fucking piggy night.
Cause dude, I shit you not, man.
There were so many fucking assholes there with those goddamn mustaches.
(17:47):
And I just wanted to fucking punch him right in the face.
And also I was going to say, I think that the reason it even eventually got like half
full was because I think the people that came late were the people that didn't pay for their
tickets.
Cause I think they gave out a lot of free tickets to first responders shit, like cops
and like firefighter, like the, like the, how, whatever the cities and stuff around
(18:09):
there.
Um, so I think that's why it was only half, cause it was maybe at the peak in the, in
the, in the going into the third period is like half full.
And then the majority of the game though, it was only a quarter full, which was great.
And it's also great because you can yell and everyone hears you.
So like, if I say something, everybody in the stadium heard it.
(18:29):
And so I was fucking me and there was in my section, it was me and it was a lady and her
two kids were the only people rocking golden nights shit.
All right.
And these two motherfuckers in the front, they had Henderson silver nights shit on.
And I will tell you right now, the AHL teams are fucking up by making it so difficult to
(18:52):
get their shit and also not selling good shit.
By the way, there was not a single flex fit fucking hat.
Every fucking hat that they sell is a fitted snap or it's not a fit.
It's a snapback fucking hat and I cannot abide snapback hats.
First of all, I'm not a child.
Okay.
Only children wear fucking snapback hats.
Grown ass adults need either flex fit or fitted.
(19:12):
That's the only fucking way you should be wearing hats.
And so I was upset cause I told Katie, I was like, ah, maybe I'll get like a rain hat and
I'll just have you buy it.
And like, you know, when we come back again, I'll fucking like, I'll just wear that.
And then I'll just, if it's a team I don't care about, I'll just pretend to be a rain
fan the whole time and I'll just be obnoxious.
And then maybe people will be like, Hey, aren't you that asshole that was fucking yelling at
the Knights game that one time?
And I'll be like, nah, I never heard of them, you know, whatever.
(19:34):
So and then I'll come back when they play the Knights again and then fucking be an asshole.
So uh, so we go in their first period and man, I will tell you what, I don't know if
it's cause these guys are like trying to get into the league or like what, cause I've been
into minor league baseball games and it is not like this.
There is not this level of intensity that exists in minor league baseball.
(19:54):
Like some of those guys, you're like, do you even want to play professional baseball?
Like are you even trying right now?
These dudes, they were trying to murder each other at from the initial face off in the
first period.
They were literally three minutes in, they were throwing punches at in front of the goal,
the goalie a couple of times.
(20:14):
It's like three minutes in and the craziest part is that the Henderson silver Knights
are nine and 24.
Okay.
Going into this game, I forget what the rain's record was or is, but they were in like fourth
place in their fucking division or whatever.
And the silver Knights were 10th in dead last at nine and 24.
(20:36):
And so I thought for sure, I was like, man, they're going to fucking blow them out.
I'm going to get so much hate.
This is going to be crazy.
And sure as shit, dude, we went the whole fucking game almost zero, zero, and they were
beaten the fuck out of each other, dude.
They were, I had never seen so many dudes block shots before in my fucking life.
(20:57):
There were dudes that they were playing like this was game seven of the Stanley cup, man.
And I have to say, I dig it.
I fucking respect that shit.
These dudes are like, especially these assholes on the silver Knights, you're nine and 24.
You are not, you're not making the playoffs.
You've already, if you have 80 games in the season, you're eliminated.
Okay.
Right now you're done.
(21:17):
Yeah.
But you're in the perfect sport.
I think regardless of a win outcome, if things don't go in your way, you could take it out
on somebody else, you know, on the ice.
Like if you play for a minor league team, for a hockey team and your team is shit, Oh
fuck.
Oh well, you know, we're not playing for a championship or anything like that, but we
(21:39):
can fuck, we can fuck you up.
Yeah.
We can fuck your chance of winning up.
I'm injuring some of you guys and that's what they were trying to do, man.
And also the penalties.
Holy shit.
The blatancy of some of these penalties, dude, this guy, he straight up looked at the referee
as they were fucking flying and saw that the referee was right there and he takes his stick
and he literally grabs a dude's skate and just kicks him back and fucking slams him on
(22:04):
the ground.
I was like, Oh, that was fucking awesome.
And so yeah, there were a lot of penalties.
That was one thing that I feel like going to an NHL game, I didn't see as many penalties
as there were like in this shit.
And so anyways, throughout the game shit's happening and the refs are starting to call
more penalties on the rain and the audience is booing to the point where they're chanting
(22:28):
you suck refs.
This must be like a thing that they do in Ontario because they chanted you suck refs
a lot.
The children were screaming at the top of their lungs.
You suck.
That's actually kind of fucking cool.
And so then after that dies down and they're waiting to start the fucking the face off
from the penalty, right?
(22:49):
It dies down and it gets like, it gets real quiet.
And so I just yelled out, Hey refs, you're calling the game very well.
You're doing an excellent job.
I said some shit like that, right?
And I literally motherfuckers turned around and like looked back and I got booed like
a motherfucker.
(23:09):
And I was just like, Oh, come on.
Like they're doing a great job.
Like they need a raise.
Like and fucking when I, and then I started fucking, I started chirping at one of the
fucking guys on the rain and I was just like saying stupid shit.
I'd be like, Oh, I was like, Oh, you're a bomb.
Like, you know, I was just saying dumb shit.
And then some of the kids in our section like left and so I was like, Oh cool.
(23:33):
It's like mostly adults now.
So I did the line that I said like, Hey man, I subscribe to your only fans and I'd like
my money back please.
But I started popping some of those and people were laughing at that.
It was funny.
And so I was doing that.
One of the guys, I feel like one of the, I think one of the guys flipped me off like
that I was chirping at.
It's hard to tell because they got those fucking thick ass gloves on.
(23:53):
And I mean, but he was making it seem very obvious that he was trying to flip me off.
So that was funny.
And then there was this dude in front of us.
Okay.
And before I forget to in the road that we were in, we were in row E, which was the fifth
row back.
Right.
And our entire row, the whole game until the third period, me and Katie were the only motherfuckers
(24:13):
sitting in our row.
It was great.
Third period comes, six people showed up for some fucking reason, all nonrelated in separate
spots.
And of course what happens we're in seats, I think seven and eight and these two assholes
had seats nine and 10.
And what do they do?
They sit in seats, nine and 10.
And so I hate that so much.
(24:34):
Yeah.
I don't know if it's an implied universal rule that people understand, but if you have
an opportunity to sit away from people, giving the fact that given the fact that there's
you know, vacancies and other seats, why not just take the other fucking seat?
Yeah.
That was actually at the end of the second period.
And so when we got up and during intermission to go take a piss or whatever and Katie wanted
(24:58):
to smoke, I want to get some food for the third period.
When we walked out, I'm like, hey, we come back.
I kicked your purse over.
So let's just sit in six and seven because I am touching this fucking lady and it's bothering
me.
Like I can't, it's bothering me.
I can't do this.
And so we came back and just moved over and I'm like, why, why did you guys not just move
(25:19):
over?
Like it was in, it was the second period and like there was no one in our row.
You could have just been like, oh, hey, cool.
Oh, we're supposed to be in these two seats.
But you know what?
I don't want to, I don't want to, we're the only assholes in this row right now at this
point.
We'll just move over with the seat and then if these assholes show up, oh cool.
We'll move back if that's what happens, right?
Or maybe we'll move four rows, four seats down or hell you could have went two rows
(25:42):
forward where there was nobody sitting and sat in a better seat.
I don't know.
But they were also, it was very strange because at the beginning they checked our shit.
We went into our row, they checked it and there was a guy standing there and he checked
our shit to make sure that we were supposed to be in that section.
And that was it.
After the first period, no one was standing there checking shit anymore.
(26:03):
So I was like, oh, even if you buy fucking nosebleeds, you can fucking come down later
in the game and they don't check after the first initial window.
Once the puck drops, they're not there anymore.
They just don't even check.
So that was kind of cool.
And so we go out, I go get some food and what was really, really nice was that the food
(26:24):
there was actually affordable, man.
Like it was good.
Was it good?
They had.
OK, so I got this is what I ended up ordering because I was fucking drinking.
So I fucking ordered like a fucking animal.
But I got a thing of nachos.
I got a thing of loaded tater tots, which basically consisted of onions, chili, cheese,
and then some other kind of fucking sauce that they put on there was fucking amazing.
(26:48):
And then I got a thing of fries for Katie.
And then I got two waters and like a soda.
Forty fucking bucks for all that shit at Angel Stadium or at Crypto.
That should have been one hundred fucking dollars easy.
And they also had this sweet deal.
And I almost thought about getting it.
(27:08):
It was four burgers and four fries for forty dollars.
I was like, oh, I can smash four fucking cheeseburgers right now.
That's like I just take off the buns, fucking combine them all into one burger and just
fucking eat that whole thing for forty bucks.
Like, fuck, and I got four things of fries.
Give Katie two of the fries.
I'll take two of them.
Fucking that's a good deal.
And then I ended up saying like, oh, I kind of want to try a little bit of everything,
(27:28):
just see what's good.
Those tater tots were fucking amazing.
I don't know if they were the frozen ones from fucking Sam's Club or whatever.
I can't prove that.
But goddamn, they were fucking delicious.
The nacho cheese, granted, it's in the little cups or whatever.
And then they give you like jalapenos and stuff.
But and that was me ordering an extra cheese, too, by the way.
So that was like including that.
(27:51):
They just give you a little bag of Tostitos or whatever.
So it's not like that one was kind of like you can't really fuck this up.
It's it just is what it is.
And then it wasn't bad.
It was good for the price.
I think that nachos was like eight dollars.
Like that was like nothing.
And so I'm like, all right.
So that was cool.
Ate that.
And then.
Going into the third period, fucking everybody's going crazy.
(28:15):
Shit's happening.
So almost goal scoring opportunities take place.
And then finally, on a power play, the fucking Silver Knights dump one in and go up one,
one nothing.
And then the fucking whole thing.
And then it eventually ends.
Right.
So there was this guy sitting in front of us and he showed up in the third fucking period.
And he was clearly a season ticket holder because like he was talking to some other
(28:36):
dudes like, oh, like they know each other and shit, or they must get that 10 pack of
games every season or 20 pack or whatever.
And like they go.
Right.
So like they were there talking about, oh, he's oh, you're going to be here tomorrow
night because I guess they were playing some other team tonight on Sunday.
He's like, oh, yeah, I'll be here tonight.
He's like, cool.
This motherfucker.
All right.
This dude is wearing a Dallas Stars jersey and he's also wearing a Texas Rangers baseball
(28:58):
team hat.
OK, so I'm like.
What is wrong with you?
And there were quite a few people there that had that on their not.
It wasn't as rampant as some of the professional sports things I've been to.
But like, for example, there were some assholes that showed up with Anaheim Ducks jerseys.
(29:19):
There's a whole swath of them.
And I'm like, oh, is it Anaheim Ducks night tonight?
Like what?
What?
Why are you guys even here?
Why are you showing up with these fucking jerseys on?
All right.
I have a counterargument because you made you you make this point.
Yeah.
And you're the counterargument.
All right.
Because what if people are just appreciative of the sport itself and maybe the jerseys
(29:40):
don't really matter?
Sure, they affiliate with some other team outside the region.
But ultimately, above all else, because how do you think it orders for sports fans that
they like the sport first or love the sport first and then it's the team or it's vice
versa?
Because if it's if it's the other way around, it's always the team first.
If it's the other way around, if you just like the sport itself, then yeah, fuck.
(30:04):
I mean, what does it matter what these assholes wear?
So here's my counterargument to that.
If you're going to go to a game in person, just wear a regular fucking t shirt.
Why do you need to wear a fucking hockey sweater?
So it's to let you know that they are they're appreciative of another team and they like
hockey nonetheless, even if it is unaffiliated with the teams that are actually playing.
(30:28):
I think that's dumb as hell.
It's like when I go to games and I see dumb bitches wearing New York Yankees jerseys or
wearing Yankees hats and I'm like, why are you here?
They're not playing.
Neither of these teams are the Yankees.
So why are you fucking here?
Again, I get listen, I like hockey, too.
I like baseball.
If I'm going to go, let's say I were to go to like, I don't know, a fucking San Jose
(30:49):
Sharks game and they're playing the fucking Seattle Kraken.
All right, let's just say that I don't like either of those teams.
But if I'm in San Jose and they're playing or if I'm in Seattle and they're playing,
I'll go to a game.
But guess what I'm going to do?
I'm just going to wear regular ass fucking clothes.
I'm going to show up with my L.A. or my fucking Golden Knights jersey and my Golden Knights
gear because that's being an asshole.
(31:09):
All right.
You're doing that anyways.
So it's like you're doubling down by doing that.
No, because I'm wearing the shit of a team that's playing.
But I'm saying if you went to a game, if you went back to this Ontario rain bullshit.
Yeah.
And you just buy whatever team they're playing just to be an asshole.
I don't know about that.
It'd be funny if you were like something that's totally unrelated.
(31:31):
It'd be so funny if you had if you had like a Washington generals jersey because, you
know, like Harlem Globetrotters play all the time and they're fake.
Like that would be fun because they always lose.
So here's an instance where I thought this happened, where it was funny.
So we in there and there's this chick and she has this fucking this.
(31:52):
It's a beers jersey, which the Milwaukee beers or wherever the fuck they were from in the
goddamn baseball.
But it's from baseball.
It's a team that they were and she has it's a Cooper, Cooper fucking beers jersey.
And I'm like, holy shit, I've never seen one of these before in my life.
I didn't know they fucking made them.
I love baseball.
90 percent of the fucking inside jokes that like me and Frank have are from baseball,
(32:16):
the movie.
And most of the things I say are from baseball, the movie or referencing it in some way.
And so I something happened.
I don't know what it was, but like she dropped something or it was like something went in
some way.
And I was like, oh, yeah, now you got to fetch the ball, bitch.
And it's like, it's like and then she looked at me like, I'm sorry.
And then I was like, what else?
(32:37):
I said so I was like, I said another line for like the movie and I keep saying these
lines and they look at me like I was retarded.
And I'm like, oh, you've never fucking seen that movie because I was like, oh, you know,
like from baseball and they were just like, what?
And I'm like, I got to go.
I just turned around and walked away because I was so impressed and so disappointed at
the same fucking time, man.
(32:57):
Like my theory, my theory is that that person acquired the jersey from a thrift shop and
they just thought, yeah, it looked cool because it does look cool.
But do they know what it's in reference to?
Probably not.
So they just, you know.
Well, that goes back again to my point.
Don't even don't wear jerseys if you don't know what they're about or don't wear them
(33:18):
teams that aren't playing.
Also, there were some assholes wearing Philadelphia Eagles shit.
This is that's football.
What do you say about that?
What if what if somebody was wearing a Kevin Smith, you know, Fat Man hockey jersey?
Because you know, it's like the it's not the Edmonton Oilers or maybe it is because it
is orange and blue.
(33:40):
It's like an Edmonton Oilers jersey.
Yeah, but he changed the logo.
That's acceptable.
If you were to wear some like if there was a guy that was wearing this like Darth Vader
like hockey jersey, that's also acceptable.
It's a hockey jersey, but it's not related to any specific team that's fucking around.
Right.
Those are allowed.
(34:00):
I'd be OK with that.
Hell, if you want to wear a football jersey that was like a fucking Star Wars or a Captain
America football.
I'm cool.
I'm cool with that.
I'd be down with that.
That's just to me.
That's the equivalent of just wearing a Star Wars t-shirt.
Right.
Yeah.
Like if I go to a hockey game and I just wear a Star Wars t-shirt.
OK, cool.
I'm not like I'm just there to do whatever.
Like I'm not or if I'm wearing like an Under Armour hat or an Under Armour shirt.
(34:21):
All right.
Like whatever.
I just I think it's like.
Insane to wear a team that's not even fucking playing to go watch them play.
And again, if your excuse is that you like hockey, that's cool.
Go to the fucking go to the like the Ducks guys, go to the Ducks fucking.
I don't know who their fucking minor league affiliate is.
(34:41):
Go to those fucking things.
Go to the goddamn Ducks games then don't fucking be coming over here wearing your dumb shit.
Just wear to wear a fucking regular t-shirt, you son of a bitch.
I don't get it.
I don't fucking get it.
But nonetheless, outside of that or don't wear your Dallas Stars jersey with your also
don't mix and match the sports that fucking that's insane, too.
(35:03):
All right.
Don't be mixing matches of sports coming to a sporting event.
Don't be wearing a hockey jersey with a baseball fucking team hat or like a NBA jersey with
like a goddamn fucking New England Patriots hat or some shit.
All right, man.
Better yet, a fucking NASCAR jacket.
Oh, man, that would actually be funny though.
NASCAR jacket with some other bullshit going on.
NASCAR jacket with an Andre Agassi fucking hat.
(35:24):
Yeah, see, that would be funny though.
That's funny.
That's not that's these people are like they're not doing it to be funny.
They're fucking just they're stupid.
Like, that's what it is.
That's my that's like NPC behavior right there.
I feel like, dude, there was this guy.
That would show up at this pizza place.
I don't know why talking about people that combine things that shouldn't go together,
(35:49):
even though in theory it technically would go.
Together in color theory because red and yellow are kind of in the same spectrum.
Yeah, this guy used to wear.
I think he used to wear a fucking San Francisco 49ers jersey underneath and he had a four
year fucking Lakers jersey jersey on top.
It was the strangest thing ever.
(36:10):
It was just such an eyesore.
But I don't know, man.
People just roll that way, I guess.
I guess, but anyway, 10 out of 10 would recommend.
All right, would bang this.
This is this fucking this going to on Ontario Rain game fucks.
All right.
(36:31):
It's cool as hell.
It's fun.
I'm still I definitely think that we're going to be getting like we're definitely going
to that Star Wars night fucking game for sure.
And I don't know how late it is in their season.
I mean, it's probably about halfway through because they're fucking whatever fucking nine
and fucking 20 for 10 and 24 now.
So they played what?
(36:52):
Thirty four games, 35 games.
So they're probably like maybe halfway through the season.
So probably next season we'll end up getting like one of those 10 or I'll find like some
kind of a pack to get like tickets and shit.
And yeah, that'd be kind of cool because it's cheap.
It's affordable.
It's not I can't go get shit if I wanted to get like a 10 game like I think Brian was
telling me he bought that those three pack of tickets for that 10 game, three pack of
(37:16):
ticket things.
And it was like it's like three grand or some shit.
And it's like, fuck, that's a lot of money, man.
Three hundred bucks a game.
So fuck, if I could get three hundred bucks for fucking 10 games, that's a that's a hell
of a deal.
So I'd be down.
I'd do it.
Oh, yeah.
So it's going to happen.
And then I'm still on the jury still out if I'm going to actually get that's going to
(37:40):
get pricey if I got to get other teams shit every single time they play somebody different.
I may just fucking wear an Ontario rain hat if I can find one.
You got to pick your battles on what looks cooler is acceptable.
If I can find a cool one, like if they have a cool ass team name like the trash pandas
for like the angels, right?
Yeah.
Like if the minor league team has a cool ass name like that that I could wear outside of
(38:00):
that.
OK, cool.
I justify wearing the New Mexico jackass.
That would be fucking cool as hell.
I got to look and see what other teams are in the goddamn minor, the fucking A.H.L.
or whatever.
We'll see A.H.L.
I'm just curious to see team directory.
Oh, man, they're all fucking bullshit names.
The Abbotsford Canucks.
Oh, man, look at this guy.
He's just like a dude with a beanie on lumberjack.
(38:23):
Oh, man, the Bakersfield Condors.
Look how poverty the website is, man.
This is so poverty.
The Belleville Senators.
Wow, that's that's where that's very that looks like that looks like Angola's flag.
Oh, man, then we got the Bridgeport Islanders.
The Calgary Wranglers.
Oh, what a.
(38:44):
Oh, what is this?
The Charlotte Checkers.
That's cool.
What the fuck's a checker?
Maybe it's a badger.
Oh, maybe it's some kind of like a species of badger.
The Chicago Wolves.
That's kind of cool.
Looks crappy.
The Cleveland Monsters.
That's fucking hilarious.
It looks like Godzilla peeking his head out of the water.
(39:04):
The Coachella Valley Firebirds.
Oh, no way, dude.
I didn't even know they had a minor league team.
Jesus, I wonder where the fuck it's in Palm Desert.
God damn.
The Colorado Eagles.
Oh, yeah, that's who they're playing on the Star Wars night.
And then they got all the Grand Rapids Griffins.
Man, do you know what this looks like?
This looks like they made this with an Envato Elements file like that.
(39:25):
Looks like that's exactly what it looks like.
The Hartford Wolf Pack.
There's the Henderson Silver Knights.
Then you got the Hershey Bears, man.
The Hershey Pennsylvania Bears.
What a missed opportunity.
They could have been called the Hershey Squirts, dude.
That's fucking whack.
And then their mascot could have been like a little dude, like because he's a squirt,
(39:49):
or like a lemon that like squirts fucking shit.
The Hershey Bars.
The Iowa Wild.
Oh, that's whack.
That's so stupid.
Laval Rocket.
That's kind of cool.
Why is it singular?
And why the fuck does it have nothing to do with the rocket?
It's just an R.
It's just an R, man.
(40:10):
Like that's dumb.
Why does it have the Austrian flag behind it?
Yeah, that is weird.
I think that's the Montreal flag because they're related to the Montreal Canadiens.
There you go.
The Ley Valley Phantoms.
Oh, man, it looks like like a bootleg Gengar or whatever.
That's cool.
And then you got the Manitoba Moose.
Wow.
The Milwaukee Admirals.
But he's like a pirate.
(40:32):
That's interesting.
Oh, no, they are the Ontario Reign with that old style Kings logo.
Yeah, that's cool.
I like that.
The Providence Bruins.
Wow.
It's just the Boston Bruins.
We took off the little bottom part.
Wow.
That's fucking that's AIDS.
Oh shit.
The Rochester Americans.
(40:53):
Rockford Ice Hogs.
Oh, that's kind of cool.
Fucking Ice Hogs, man.
San Diego Gulls.
What a shitty mascot, a seagull.
I don't know, man.
That's just San Jose Barracuda.
Oh shit.
They're all in the same area.
That's crazy.
Like how they move down the the food chain.
(41:15):
Shark Barracuda.
Yeah, Tuna.
They're like, what else we got?
What's a predatory fish?
Salmon.
No.
Springfield Thunderbirds.
Oh, dude, the Syracuse Crunch.
The Hershey Crunch.
The Hershey Squirts Crunch bars.
Oh, yeah.
Look at that.
Texas Stars.
Texas Stars.

That's very strange.
I don't know about that.
The Tucson Roadrunners.
That's pretty funny.
Utica Comets.
Utica.
Where's that at?
New York.
Oh, look at that.
(41:57):
This one has a hyphenated name.
It's a hyphenated and slash name.
The Wilkes Bar slash Scranton's Penguins.
That's too much.
Too much.
That's it.
It's all the AHL teams.
Fucking not that many.
The only reason I would vaguely be interested in going to a game is because the poke spot
that I go to is like, it's less than it's probably less than three miles or a mile next
(42:22):
to the Toyota Arena.
That's pretty cool.
Well, I guess we'll see.
Maybe we'll go to a game.
Maybe I'll buy that 10 pack and you and me can go to one or something and then fucking
we can fuck about.
Get into trouble.
Anyways, when we were waiting in line, the guy said something to me.
(42:47):
Some guy said something to me about wearing the fucking being a fucking Golden Knights
fan or some shit.
I said, oh, you got to get up out of here.
And I said, I looked at it.
I looked around and I said, huh, you know, I've been ejected from nicer establishments.
It was like, oh, what?
And I was like, that's true.
So anyways, all right.
Well, that'll be the end of this one.
