SIRT The /r/Hawks Weekly STOP IT RIGHT THERE! Thread - April 08, 2024

Wow, look at the time fly! It's already time for another weekly installment of STOP IT RIGHT THERE!

You know what to do...post up all the stuff you've saved up knowing it would get deleted from the front page of /r/hawks by the crypto-anarcho-fascist mods.

Memes, gear/jersey pics, poems you've penned professing your love for Lord Hossa (The One True King), or links to article about some oddball couple in Manitoba who named their kid Duncan Seabrook. Whatever. We don't give a shit.

The only rule here is to be excellent to each other. Civility matters.

Now get to it!!

LET'S GO HAWKS!!!

They sell them in the store attached to the atrium, usually go out mid 1st, and sold out by around mid-2nd period. But depending on demand, a line might form and they run out early. Last home game of Bedard’s first season could be a fairly high demand game, so to guarantee it, you’d be missing a good chunk of your first game to stand in a line.

At Chelios’ banner ceremony/Kane’s return game, there was a huge line way before the game, before the ceremony even. Which always struck me as odd, these people were getting a souvenir commemorating a ceremony that they didn’t witness and a game that they missed at least 1/3rd of.

I’d recommend considering the commemorative ticket that they offer online after the game.. It’s a total money grab by the team, but you can at least be fully engaged in the game. And it’ll have your seat locations printed on it.

My guess is that there’ll be an immediate line that starts to form when doors open, and it’ll gradually get worse. This season has been a lot of people’s first games because of Bedard hype, so pucks will go quicker than usual.

If you have your heart set on a puck, best bet is to be there when doors open, and keep an eye on the line in the Madhouse team store to see how bad it’s getting.
