Enjoying Local Women's Sports

 Minneapolis, MN


Lynx Basketball Finals

The other night Donna and I attended game 3 of the MN Lynx vs. New York Liberty WNBA Finals.  It was an incredibly exciting game but sadly a loss and they ended up losing the series a few games later.  We had a great time cheering them on and we will cheer them on again next year.  The games are incredibly entertaining.


We all got "Free" T-Shirts to wear and towels to wave.


It was the largest attendance for a Lynx game yet at 19,521 attendees.

Golden Gophers Hockey

About a week later we attended the women's Minnesota University Golden Gophers Hockey Game vs. The Minnesota State Mankato Mavericks.  It was a really fun game.  Seats were general admission so we were able to sit in a few different places to check out the action.  We decided our favorite place to sit was low in the corners so that you could see the whole rink in one view.  It was really fun watching the puck bank around the glass right in front of you.  We will have to try other hockey games in these seats.

We took a selfie with Goldy the Gopher.






Ridder Arena appears to be a dedicated arena for the Women's Hockey Team.

We have been to Otter Tail County!



It was a really fun game.  "We" won 8 to 2.  Another great thing about the night is that we were able to take The Green Line light rail right there.  It was an easy trip and we look forward to seeing more sporting events at UMN.

That's it for today.  If you missed, Disney World, check it out.  We went to Disney World and survived a Hurricane (The windy kind, not the drinky kind).
