WHL #3: Everett Silvertips "Twitter Mascot" (2013-2014 season)

It didn't take long for our WHL quest to get around to friends.  Soon, season tickets were coming our way and we had a fun group of beer lovers to meet with for the Everett Silvertips game.

Fans:  For this game, we were hanging with those in the know.  Sitting right on the ice in the front row near the goal opened our eyes to a whole different type of fan.  There were cowbells.  There was screaming.  Did I mention the cowbells?  I think my ears might still be ringing.

Arena:  This arena, from the moment we entered it, took our breath away.  The smells from a dozen different eateries, the encased memorabilia along the concourse, and the extensive gift shop (in which you could actually walk around in) had us mesmerized.

Beer:  Wow.  No, seriously.  Wow.  A measly little tweet of mine a few nights earlier caught the attention of a beer lover who worked for the Silvertips.  They boasted of the beer selection.  My beer friend season ticket holders did also.  It wasn't until I saw the plethora of local taps that I believed it.  Without a doubt, THE best WHL arena for craft beer.

Twitter Mascot?  Yes.  Behold the power of Twitter.  A huge thank you to Aaron who not only loves hockey and good beer, but had the ability to send Lincoln, the Silvertips' mascot, to the seats of some crazy hockey loving ladies.
