About 10 minutes have passed in the championship game, and there still isn’t a score. The teams are pretty evenly matched and there’s been a lot of skating and hitting, not much shooting. The most action in the house seems to be coming from the Michigan State fans, who are constantly shouting: “Go Green, Go White.”

I am sitting at the top of the arena, which I like a lot. Hockey moves pretty fast and from this vantage point I can actually see the plays develop.
