While the girls were enjoying Carrie Underwood and friends at the Grand Ole Opry, the boys and I joined up with the scouts at the Nashville Predators hockey game. It was a little different experience...a sport where punching each other is ok as long as everybody is still standing. I think it could be exciting, but just not really my sport. We all had a blast though and had all you can eat popcorn, soda, peanuts and tortilla soup...so I also had lots of antacids.
So each time the Predators scored, we got to here Tim McGraw singing that He likes it, He loves it, He wants some more of it. And a LOUD siren that made Davis cover his ears each time. After the game, we moved down closer to the ice and watched "The Mighty Ducks" on the big screen. Perfect movie for this night, and one of my favorites anyway...Altho Part 3 is the best. Then we got to go into our room where we would be sleeping...just one large room with everyone side to side...it was probably similar to a refugee camp, yet at night, the crew could not figure out how to turn off the lights...so yes, lights on, and let me tell you...the people that snore...they have no problems sleeping with the lights on.
With Very little sleep, Gnash the mascot woke us up in the morning with an airhorn. Our friend, Bob brown and his family, rode back to the opryland hotel with us, and after hearing about the girls waking to waterfalls, he said "Yeah, we woke up to B.O. and fart". Great line, and now captured forever in our memories. Accurate description tho.
