badger_14 601 Report post Posted September 17, 2012 Out to Ottawa for a tournament. NYC for the Chelsea Challenge comes in second only because of the bus trip/terminal, but it was my first time at any hockey tournament, really well run and a lot of fun.

Jason Harris 31 Report post Posted September 18, 2012 I'm supposed to be in Toronto for the HHOF Induction Weekend. After that, I'm not sure what I'll be doing, I've invested with Kerry, so I'm a small partner in 29 Sports and Stop Concussions, but it still needs to be in the budget for me to come along on some of these excursions.Have you ever been around during the HHOF Weekend? Is it possible that we've met? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beerleaguecaptain 999 Report post Posted September 18, 2012 My mens league team had gone to Montreal 6 years in a row. The collection of stories and memories are endless. I'd share some stories but out of respect to man, woman, animal and the laws of several states and countries, I must maintain my silence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wrangler 157 Report post Posted September 19, 2012 agreed, Travelling on buses with teams back in the day was boring as shit and got me started on dipping when i was 12...Back in the day? I had to chuckle, guess I didn't realize just how old you are.It's not just you. I always smile when I hear that phrase from someone less than half the age of some of my equipment.

OpenIceHit42 2 Report post Posted September 25, 2012 HNA Nationals in Toronto last May.A good amount of our team flew from STL to Buffalo then drove up to Toronto, what a blast. Went out the night before the tournament started and we had a guy have one too many "soadies" and he fell asleep while on the toilet. Although, I'm sure these long road trips are heck of a-lot more fun when your winning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hunt3rsean 44 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 We did out first team road-tournament a year or two ago. Half the team drove down to AZ (from OR) in a tour bus type deal to play in an ice tourney. We took a TV and hooked up an XBOX to play NHL12 all the way down. We just rotated drivers and drove straight through. Was a ton of fun. Although, we had our butts handed to us in the tourney, but that's alright. Was a great experience and everyone we played was great to drink with after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so, I'm helping you next year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The MAD Line 2 Report post Posted November 15, 2012 Not as epic as some of these, but probably one of the funnest. Was in Grade 11 and for High School hockey provincials (same as state championships) we rented a huge luxury bus for the 8 hour drive. Watched Don Cherry's hockey the entire way, our bus driver was insane and even went through a Tim Horton's drive-thru in the bus, we had people stopping their cars to take pictures.Stayed in a pretty crappy hotel and just stayed up and played NHL every night. We were suppose to be in bed before 11 the night before the championship game, but we were still up at 1am, so we hear a knock at our door, my buddy answers, it's our coach. We're all scared as I don't know what. He doesn't say anything, he just comes in, fairly drunk, eats a veggie sub from Subway and then just walks out. That was it. So funny. Then we woke up the next day and won, just to top it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
