Is hockey a family affair?
Monday, September 29th, 2008Okay, so I was watching the Rangers/Habs game at my Maw-Maw’s house on Sunday, when my Paw-Paw said, “This doesn’t make any sense to me… they’re just swatting that ball around in a circle and they’re not getting anywhere.”
So that made me wonder - how many of you folks have grown up with hockey being a deep-rooted part of your family tradition? (like you know, your parents are fans, their parents are fans, their parents were fans…) or are you a first-generation hockey lover?
As for me, I’m somewhat of a first-generation fan… I started watching it on TV when I was little, and I LOVED it, and my incessant (obsessive) watching of it eventually led to my parents taking the time to understand it, and now they love it, too.
So? Your personal hockey family history?
Haha, but most of the time outside my family setting, I’m just the oddball who watches hockey.
