Hope you enjoyed your trip!Well, it WAS nice to finally get to see some snow after all this time in SoCal. I swear I almost cried as we crossed back into the US though :(Didn't help that I get pulled in by CBP every. single. time. because I have the same name as a 6'3 black man with a warrant.

Hopefully it pops up, and I can (I know I can) will get refunded. Just bought it too! Why did you pay extra for the stick? Southwest's policy is one hockey bag and one stick bag (or pair of sticks taped together) counts as a single checked item. I guess it was a good idea that I brought a printout of their hockey bag policy with me to Winterfest, even if I didn't end up needing it.

IPv6Freely 2092 Report post Posted January 2, 2013 because I had 2 other bags, neither hockey equipment. Ah, got it. I had read it as if you checked your hockey bag for free but had to pay extra for the stick. Sorry about that. (Still going to keep bringing that printout with me when I travel - you never know when you might get a "green" SWA employee!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coryroth24 15 Report post Posted January 7, 2013 Played a team that stooped to an all time low last night. I can deal with bringing in a ringer or two, but six?!?!? We played this team four times previously (2-2) and never have seen any one of the six guys they brought in. Pure BS. Game got chippy with them too. They had 17 players on the bench and ended up with 13 by the end of the game. We did get the last laugh though, our 10 man bench knocked them off 4-2...

RadioGaGa 162 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 I know, everyone is sick this time of year...so venting about a cold is kinda, well...whiny, to be honest....I seem to have gotten past the worst of my symptoms in the past week....except for this ONE damn thing. I have the feeling that there is something lodged in my throat!!!!! My breathing is not impeded at all....I can't wash anything down, I can't bring anything up.Surely it is just iritation from the amount of violent coughing I've done in the last 3-4 days, but holy hell....it is annoying!/vent Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
