The WCHA's BC is Minnesota. As long as Minnesota doesn't do well, everyone is happy. No one cares if UND, Wisconsin, or UMD do well. But when Minnesota fails, everyone is happy. :-) Plus, it's fun to watch Brent melt down and punch holes in his apartment walls, followed by threats to shoot Dirty. Joe, don’t listen to Brent.

Anyway, forgot to mention that attendance for the 5 games (including the dreaded 3rd place game, which "only" about 10K or so go to): approx 72K. If you took all the years the Final Five has been in existence, this year's tourney ranked almost dead even with the median attendance. I think the record year had about 90K attending. Also, for the record, in the MN High School Hockey tournament title game, I believe we drew 18K to the game. I shoulda known Donna would say something about that line.

It was awesome to see you take it all in, and I have to admit, it did remind us of how good we have it, watching someone go through it for the first time. And our BC is not MN. It's UND.

You yelling RED during the national anthem was a highlight. Rigging the Toss Your Cookies game and the Red Baron game was fun. Making fun of Rusty always a blast. Seeing your joy on the zam was happy. Drinking that crazy wine-beer was amazing. Playing Wii and making dollar bets was great. You needing your cell phone fixed and making Dirty antsy was hilarious. Basically, I'm glad you came out and hope you can make it again next year. Oh, and we do have our own BC out here in the west. It's called Minnesota. :-) Hey Joe,

That tournament was nothing short of awesome, though. :) I’m sorry I couldn’t provide a more quality shot of the elusive Siouxbacca.
