PICTURE(S) OF THE DAY

HOCKEY IS WEIRD. Yesterday the good folks in Chicago paid good money to sit in the freezing cold and “look at” hockey. We say “look at,” because you can’t actually watch the game in a stadium that far from the rink. You think basketball in a stadium is hard to watch, try spotting that little bitty 100 mph hockey puck from the right field bleachers.

Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings defeated the Chicago Blackhawks 6-4 in the NHL Winter Classic at Wrigley Field.
