Funny enough t...Thanks for the comment, Elizabeth! Funny enough the Canes are the team I hate most, but I hate hating them because of their fans lol. Most of the Canes fans I know are awesome. We made a huge road trip to watch the Thrashers play the Canes last season...got shut out. OUCH!<br />I hate the Canes because they ruined my playoffs last season. Whether in a small group (with the Thrashers fans) or alone (I came for the Game 6 between you and the Devils) I've had nothing but good experience with Cain fans. I love a good rivalry. When fans aren't ugly, it's a good time. Nashville is another good fan base.<br />As much as it would pain me, if Carolina was in the finals, depending on who they were facing, I'd probably pull for them. Gotta stick up for Sun Belt hockey!Sunshine36616https://www.blogger.com/profile/16203591836407117240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1973478613072681675.post-10555678806967276782010-03-10T08:06:21.105-08:002010-03-10T08:06:21.105-08:00Great pics!

Reading your comments RE: travelling to an away game to watch your team lose & also seeing several Canes fans were in Atlanta Sunday, I thought you might enjoy hearing about a neat experience I had in the 2007-08 season (pretty sure that was the year!). I was at a Thrashers vs Hurricanes game where the Thrashers booster club had travelled to the RBC Center. They were enthusiastic & loud but not obnoxious. What stood out & made me remember it so well was how the entire group (a large one; I'd say about 100 ppl) stayed to stand & applaud each of the 3 stars - even though Atlanta lost & all the stars were Canes. I was EXTREMELY impressed by that display of class & good sportsmanship by the Atlanta fans!!! My family has been STHs since the Hurricanes moved here & I don't ever remember another instance where fans of the other team did something so cool. Though I never 'hated' the Thrashers, that was a turning point in my feelings toward Atlanta. I hope Canes fans travel equally well & were behaving themselves at Phillips on Sunday! =)<br /><br />For the record - and I speak for 99.9 if not 100% of Canes fans - I would SO much rather Atlanta make the playoffs than Florida. So your boys gotta get it together & start acting like they want it!! Go Thrashers! =)SunnyCloudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14968362520115059464noreply@blogger.com
