| I've never
considered myself to be much of a hockey fan, but I have always been
interested in going to watch a game in person. When I heard about the Florida Panthers First Timer program, I immediately went to their website and signed up to receive two free tickets for the upcoming game against the Buffalo Sabres on December 4th 2008. The next day I received an email with instructions for picking up my two free tickets at the Panthers First Timer table. The game was held at the Bank Atlantic Center located in Sunrise Florida near the Sawgrass Mills Mall. We arrived just after the 7:30 PM game start time and there was still plenty of free parking. It only took a few minute to pick up our two free tickets, get some beers, and find our seats. |

| The Florida Panthers won this game against the Buffalo Sabres with a final score of 2 goals to one. It was a fun experience and we really enjoyed being around such enthusiastic fans. If you've never been to a game, I highly recommend you take advantage of the Panthers First Timer program. Some of the upcoming Florida Panthers home games are against the Avalance on 12-21-08, the Predators on December 23rd, the Lightning 12-26, the Canadiens 12-29, the Hurricanes 1-8-09, the Thrashers 1-10-09, the Flyers 1-16-09, and the Canadiens again on 1-29-09. | ||
