Buenos Aires – December 2019 – It’s a Hockey Night in … Argentina ???

Most of my adult life I have looked forward to CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday night (despite living in the USA). Well this Saturday night found us 6000 miles south but fear not – they had hockey. Well roller hockey, but still it looked and sounded like hockey – 4 on 4 on a much smaller rink!

It turns out it was the championship game and the two finalists were local rivals. The couple of hundred fans went crazy the entire game, which went back and forth – double overtime – then won by the home team in a shootout.
