I was explaining different things about the game to Pace, trying to use terminology and references he would understand. Bodychecks were “crashes”, the Broncos were “the bad guys” (although since their logo is a horse, Pace initially wanted to cheer for them!) and the penalty box was “time out”. (To use the same joke when I uploaded the following photo to Facebook from the game – “time out being a reference that I think Pace understood only too well!”)
Fun times – I think we may look back on this as the day that Pace officially got bitten by the hockey bug. When we got home, he grabbed a couple mini-sticks I had and ran around the living room swatting a ball and diving all over the place. Lord (Stanley) help us!
