Legia Warszawa Hokej

Today was the first game for the Polish hockey league. Warsaw has a team and they were playing downtown so we thought it would be fun to go. It was only 10 zloty a ticket, so it was definitely some cheap entertainment. The place was tiny, probably only sat about 2-300 people, but the fans were nuts. They were screaming and chanting so hard that it sounded like 1,000 people in there. I can't imagine how it would've been if their team was actually any good. But they weren't. They really, really weren't. Apparently the coach doesn't make them practice passing, cuz damn did they ever suck at it. They only lost 4-1, so it wasn't too bad but it could've easily been much worse. I looked at their website when we got home and their record last year was 10-26, many of the loses were shutouts. They actually allowed 15 goals in two straight games. So I guess they're looking much better this season...
