Throwback Thursday

You'd be surprised at some of the Pats things that I've collected over my lifetime. Or for the people that know me it really wouldn't surprise you. I've been going through my many things and found this...


I found this on eBay a couple of years ago. It's a ticket stub from the Pats at Oil Kings game from the day I was born. I thought I'd share it and maybe some one would get a kick out of it. By the way the Pats were shellacked 8-2. From the Leader-Post:

Regina coach Gregg Pilling shuffled Jeff Lastiwka and Ken McNabb several times with Lastiwka being the victim of seven Edmonton's goals.

"There was no particular reason for switching the goalies." said Pilling. "The writing was on the wall by the time the national anthem finished, so I figured I may as well use both netminders."
