WHALERS GAME 2012
Saturday, January 14
Event, Story, and Photos by Dick DeFranceschi

Another year for our fifth Plymouth Whaler  Hockey Game, but this year was the first time the TBirds witnessed a 0 -2 loss in a game with the Mississauga Majors (near Toronto)  Our Whalers were out skated from the start, and our game record at four wins and only one loss stands as not a bad statistic.  The 25 TBirds who attend enjoyed  great food and drink as usual in the CJ Brewery Restaurant,  although two members were not able to find the Whaler Room and were forced to enjoyed the crowded bar.  Next year, guys, I will draw a map.  The highlight of my evening was Marty Zinlak’s debate with our server in the description of what is “Angry Marinara Sauce”.  The answer: very hot.  A special thanks to the many regulars who have attended every game for the five seasons I have hosted.  Though the attendance was down this season I hope to bring it back to the normal fifty or so.
