The girls took a break from their Seen Team duties (it's harder work than you think walking through all the stands) and found a cat's cradle loop in my backpack (yeah, I carry random stuff but sometimes it really does come in handy) so they kept themselves entertained while I continued to take pictures. And I have to say I was amused to see that my girls weren't the only ones playing with yarn in the stands.
At one point during the game the glass around the ice was knocked out towards the fans in the first row. From our seats it looked as though a young fan's foot/leg was injured by the glass as it fell to the ground. Just one more reason why I don't care for sitting too close to the ice.
Part of our "job" on the Seen Team at the Pirates' games this season is to choose a "Fan of the Night." We went through all the photos we had looking for the most enthusiastic fan(s) (these kids were great) then went down to the Civic Center's video control center to meet the Pirates' staff to download it for the scoreboard. The girls thought their brief behind-the-scenes visit was pretty cool.
We're helping the Seen Team with the Fan of the Night promotion for eight more games (although Seen will be at more than that throughout the season). Look out for us (and get there early, we take photos BEFORE the action on the ice begins) and show some team spirit. Maybe we'll pick you to be the next Fan of the Night.
