Barrie Colts

I have never seen a Colts game. I have lived in Barrie (and area) for the better part of 3 years and it still hasn't happened. I have wanted to, just never gotten around to it.

That changed this weekend.

Joined with some family and friends, we took the trek to the Molson Center to watch game two in the first round of OHL playoffs.
Barrie was leading the series against Kingston 1-0 going in.

What a game! The Colts scored 17 seconds into the first. Suffice it to say the crowd went nuts. They scored again 2 minutes later.
That was basically what the rest of the night entailed! The Frontenacs eventually got their act together and scored... with a two man advantage.

Barrie wound up winning 7-3.

I loved it! Aside from some really goofy penalties from the Colts it was 2 and a half hours of solid hockey.

We got to do the wave, see a guy get kicked out for being rowdy (he was let back in after a few minutes) and even had a brush with celebrity greatness, Charliehorse!



Will I ever do it again? An emphatic yes. Beats watching it on t.v any day.
