You’ve got the jerseys hanging on your wall. When you drink beer, it’s from a cup branded with your team’s name, or in one of those weird cozies. You are prone to watching games in full uniform and face-paint, even if it’s just you in your fancave alone. When the topic comes up, you’ll defend your team to death, pulling out statistics and theories that make other people roll their eyes. You’ve probably been told more than once that you should, “get rid of all that junk.” If any (or all) of these things sound like you, then we want more!
Send pictures of your memorabilia, shrines, fancaves, etc. to frontdesk@thecoast.ca. We will compile them here.
Tell us your stories in the comments and prove you’re the biggest fan. And then, for the love of all things hockey, vote.
