I remember watching him play when I was younger - and so many times he played against his kid Mark when they played the Flyers.

If my mother didn't go to the restaurant every friggin day I'd be up there all the time hoping he comes in again!

My brother made him feel good though I think. He talked hockey to him, and every time he said, "You were the guy no one would mess with!" and all kinds of stuff reminiscing of Gordie's days on the ice, Gordie would brighten up and smile from ear to ear.

He told him how me and him used to go to hockey games in NYC at the Garden to watch the Flyers play - Gordie said, "You guys were brave!" and bro got a chuckle out of that and said, "You ain't kidding!"

Philly fans are the most badass fans in all the land !...I know this to be fact ! ::boobs::

They're insane too. I've never been to any other city's home game where they boo their own team when they lose. Only in Philly!

Hey Duchess..... what is a Gordie Howe hat trick?

**Duchess** · 07-21-2009, 05:51 PM

I can 'fess up or cheat...Since it's you I'll admit I have no idea...I would do much, much better with a football question.

One goal, one assist and one fight in a game.

**Duchess** · 07-21-2009, 05:56 PM

What's a hockey game without a fight fer christssake.

Sadly, that pansy Mario Lemieux is trying to soften up the game - it's now a kinder / gentler game.

Fuck that.
