New York Rangers Game at Madison Square Garden

I was never a big hockey fan, but today the family saw the Rangers bet the Florida Panthers 4 -0.  We sat in the last row of the upper deck, but were able to see OK.  Hockey is a cult sport.  The fans who follow it are mostly real fanatics.  I saw my first hockey game at the old Madison Square Garden on 50th street in late 1963 about a week after the Kennedy assassination.  Over the years I went to one or two games here and there but was never a big fan.  In the early 1980s I was able to get season tickets to a few games from a friend of a friend.  Before today, I don't think I was at a hockey game at MSG for at least 10 years.  About 3 years ago I took the family to see an Islander game at Nassau Colisseum.
