I too was at the dome when it ripped, but since there wasn’t a cloud in sight, Rosen could not reveal on air the embarrassing trurh that Hrbek had just missed on a mighty swing cutting an equally monstrous dome blowing fart in the process. Just a rumor of course, but quite a few older ladies needed to be revivived.

Stu - Jon only correctly picked 3 of the 5 WCHA series. The 2 he didn’t have the stones to even make a prediction, including the Gophers series. And he calls himself a fan…

I got your back. Trash talk all you want. After watching the Gophers I’m not worried at all that SCSU will win by at least 4 goals.

If I’m reading the gamer correctly, last night’s hoc-key match sets up an SCSU/Gopher tilt in the Frozen Funday, or whatever it’s called.

Needless to say, I’m at a loss for how to trash talk with Jon about this, so any help I can get would be appreciated.

Roughkat: if you’re talking Minnesota-born, I guess that’s as good an answer as any. If not, then Kirby Puckett has to be my vote, unless George Mikan or Vern Mikkelsen won all those NBA titles for the Lakers in the last minute.

Interesting video of the Gophers/Hoosier Daddy game. What is this Big Ten Network? Never heard of it before. Is it a website like ESPN for the Big 11?

Also, I nominate Blake Hoffarber as the Most Clutch MN Player of all time and I challenge you to name someone better.

I think I had a heart attack.

I was at the Twins game back in April of 1986 when the roof of the HHH dome ripped in a storm. It was scary. I do have to say the dome emptied in a very orderly manner. It was Dairy Queen cap night so there was about 35,000 people and the dome emptied in about 5 minutes. The game was against the California Angels, I wanted to see Rod Carew. He didn’t even play because they had a new First Baseman named Wally Joyner.
