Random Cornell hockey fan sighting

[Robb \'94]

A Clarkson fan friend of mine who lives in the Hartford, CT area sent me this story:

[Q]
My friend who is a Michigan grad met a girl at the bar the other night.  Turns out she's a rabid Cornell hockey fan (is there any other type?!??).  She spent two hours telling him about every single Cornell player who's ever made it to the NHL or AHL.  He tried to show off his own limited hockey knowledge by mentioning that one Michigan player is on the Hartford Wolfpack.  She proceeded to smack him down by telling him that the player he had in mind was pulled up by the Rangers earlier in the season.  Ouch.
 
I think he's in love.
[/Q]

Anyone want to claim credit??

::laugh::  Josh, you know me so well.

Okay, in fairness... we had gotten onto the topic of hockey, and he asked me if there were any Cornell players in the pros.  ...to which I responded why yes, yes there are.  But that part of the conversation didn't last two hours!!

Oh - that's right!!  I knew that I'd just met someone in Boston who was from Hartford, but I couldn't remember who it was.  Sorry to have forgotten you so soon, DSS!  

And be sure to let him down gently - my friend says the michigan grad's a really nice guy!  

[dss28]

No worries!

I must say, I've had a pretty rough day, but seeing this story has certainly become the highlight of the day!

He certainly seemed nice -- he saved me from a reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally sketchy drunk guy who kept asking (read: slurring) me if I was waiting for someone... the Michigan grad happened to sit at the barstool next to me, and I leaned over and said "Hi, can you pretend we know each other?"

[Robb \'94]

Hmm - I wonder if that drunk guy was my Clarkson friend...  :-P

Apparently, we can get you Michigan Man's email address if you want it... **)

[dss28]

Haha... no no, drunk guy was a "lawyer for a firm in Hartford.  And I make lots of money.  Want to see my car?"  ...umm... riiiiiiight.

Anyone else falling in love with someone on here, or have a story of a hockey-related love...story?
