My dad wouldn't let me go so a pair of friends of mine went at the time the Jets were one of the only teams that were worse than the Leafs.<br /><br />I watched the game on TV utterly pissed off. The leafs beat them huge! Like 8-2 or something. <br /><br />I guess the most remarkable thing was that in those days parents would let their 10 year old kids go to the game unaccompanied. I remember the next year my dag got me (11 years old) and my brother (8) a pair of tickets front row right behind the Leafs bench (no glass behind the bench in those days). We went alone and got there by subway. I don't think that happens anymore eh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-600575121886358008.post-62992061066901807142011-08-25T12:10:01.728-04:002011-08-25T12:10:01.728-04:00The Leafs hammered the Thrashers 9-1 last year, a ...The Leafs hammered the Thrashers 9-1 last year, a rivalry in the making!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-600575121886358008.post-71167095260647634742011-08-25T09:38:12.435-04:002011-08-25T09:38:12.435-04:00Funny thing is, the only live Leafs game I've ...Funny thing is, the only live Leafs game I've ever seen was vs. the Jets- Tie Domi was playing for them at the time. When I think about it as a fan, it'll be like that kid that moved from your neighbourhood when you were really young, and now he's back and in high school. Looking forward to the games.kidkawarthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07333836912627161971noreply@blogger.com
