Mammoth Lacrosse

This evening we had tickets for the Colorado Mammoth lacrosse game. It’s been a few years since we’ve been to a Mammoth game. Fortunately, Marina’s jersey still fit her.

We arrived with plenty of time before the game. We were able to get snacks and take pictures before everything got started. We stood for “Oh, Canada” and sang along with the “Star Spangled Banner” before the game began.

We had good sightlines from our seats, so we could see the action quite well. Marina followed along with the action of the entire game, although I explained a few things along the way.

At intermission we went to meet Wooley – the Mammoth mascot. The line was short and moved very quickly. Then we went back to our seats for the second half.

The game was exciting and the Mammoth won 14-11. After such a busy day we were really tired, so we got to the car and went home.

Suite Life with the Mammoth

Marina's school had another sports night, this time at the Colorado Mammoth, the professional lacrosse team. We had some friends with us and were excited to have assigned seats on the club level. We got there a little after the game started and were barely settled in our seats when my sister showed up. It turned out they had a suite on the same level for the game. So, we joined them in the suite. There was food and some of our friends and family there. It just made the whole experience more fun.

The Mammoth lost the game, but it had many stretches that were exciting. Marina really got into watching the game. She cheered loudly at each goal and danced to the music throughout the game. She had a great time!

Go Mammoth!

My sister invited Marina and I along with my brothers to the Colorado Mammoth preseason game this evening. Most of us had never seen a lacrosse game before. We all had a great time. Aunt Ann gave Marina an orange cowbell top ring during the game, which she did often. When the crowd cheered, Marina did too. She even joined the chorus chanting "De-fense!" While I was off getting popcorn, she and Cameron even ended up on the Jumbo-Tron screen!
