Going into tonight's game, the Rock was in first place and were playing the Minnesota Swarm ... they had beaten Minnesota last night in Minnesota.
Scotty Newlands sang the national anthems.
The Rock huddled to get psyched before the game.
And the game began ...
Tim and Gillian sit in the row ahead of of us and cheered the Rock's first goal.
At the end of the first period, the teams were tied 3 - 3.
In the second period, Iggy, the Rock's mascot, spent some time in our section.

| He took Tim and Gillian's flag and shined Tim's head |

| Iggy made sure Tim's head was super shiny |

 |
| Lori and her husband, Jeff, sit next to us and Iggy was digging Lori's hair ... she'd temporarily coloured it in the Rock colours |
This guy sat in the row behind us with a horse head on.
 |
| Iggy showed him some love |
These girls always sit two rows ahead of us with their signs ... nice to see Iggy show them some love.
The Rock cheerleaders entertained.
At the end of the second period, the Rock were winning 8 - 6 ... yay!
The Rock cheerleaders entertained again before the third period started.
Since it is Valentine's Day, Iggy changed into something more dashing and danced with the cheerleaders later in the third period.

| Scotty made sure Iggy was looking fine |
At the end of the third period, the Rock were winning 10 - 7 ... whoohoo!
The goalies' equipment was measured at the start of the fourth period.
The 50/50 draw was almost $4,500.
Alas, Gord and I didn't win it :(
The attendance tonight was most 9,000.
The Rock won 14 - 9 ... yippee!
