Fighting Sioux in Germany

Well I had to blog this before I went to bed because I'm just buzzing.  I was lucky to get a VIP ticket to the Straubing "Tigers" game tonight which also included free beer.  A pretty good start.  The game wasn't going to well until late in the 3rd period Lee Goren assisted on the tying goal with 3 minutes left in the game.  Then he scored the winning goal in overtime.  While he was being interviewed on the ice, I walked over to where the players walk to the dressing room.  He saw my UND shirt and smiled and pointed to me.  Then Goran and Billy Trew (who didn't play because of injury) came over to talk to me.  It was a real treat to be able to talk to the two ex-Sioux hockey players.  I was told Billy is the big star on the team and was also on the German national team.  It was just fate how the tickets landed in my lap, but its a long story.  It's late and I need to get some rest before our early morning and long trip home.  I can't wait to get back!!!
