OHL All Star Game

My son and I got to come to Belleville for the OHL All Star game today... we came down last night, from Brantford, had lunch today at the arena at an All Star Luncheon... was way cool. We sat with my dad and my brother, Jake Grimes, ( a former Bull and is presently the Asst. Coach of the Bulls) , and two of the All Stars : Andrew Marshall, a defenceman from the Barrie Colts, and Kevin Lalande - Goalie from the Belleville Bulls...

Guest speakers at the luncheon were Marty McSorley and Craig Billington ( Both former Bulls that went on to stardom in the NHL ) ... it was pretty funny... McSorley flew in from Los Angeles, and he lost his luggage.... ended up speaking in track pants and a t shirt.... it was shocking how big his pipes still are....

Tonight, was the game... the 4 of us went, along with Isaac .. Bruce's boy.... His main purpose in going to Bulls Games, apart from asking Papa incessantly " WHAT HAPPENED " is....

POTCORN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he seems to enjoy popcorn!!!

It was a fun night... with the Mackay Men all being out... and to top it off, the East ( which had members of the Bulls as well as the Pete's ) whomped the West 9 - 3 and outshot them 60 - 40 setting an OHL record for most shots by a team and most shots in a game... cool!!

Tomorrow, its back to work... Am leaving Taylor here, to help Grampa with some advertising stuff, and am heading to Bobcaygeon early.... have to be there for 9 am... given my inability to be coherent before 10 AM, I'm wondering if I should just stay UP!!!
