Hockey, Simpsons, and Burritos
Last night, for a bit of nostalgia, I joined my friends Jared and Dave for a hockey game at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. A few years ago I watched Game 7 of the Toronto-Ottawa series. This was a match-up between their farm teams, and the arena was at roughly half-capacity, so it was even more dead than the playoff game, whose only enthusiasm was enforced by the scoreboard.

Highlights of the evening:
- Getting booed when I revealed my Senators jersey. It just makes the game that much more entertaining when my mere presence antagonizes people.
- Trading Simpsons quotes. It's tough to find people as appreciative of the Simpsons as my college group of friends. Not only do they like the show as much as I do, they also recognize as many or more quotes from various episodes as I do.
- Eating a giant Burrito. After the game we stopped in at Burrio Boyz, a great little shack where they make the best burritos-to-go that I've ever tasted. Dave not being able to handle the hot sauce he spontaneously ordered added to the fun.
