Anybody go?

I used to go years ago in the days of the Murrayfield Racers. A sunday afternoon playing snooker followed by an evening at the rink, drinking all the while. Fantastic days :)

Haven't been since the 80's but my son came home with some comps for tonights Fife Flyers v Whitley Warriors top of the table clash so I'm taking my kids along tonight. Hopefully it's still as exciting and action packed as it used to be.

never been but i stay a few miles from kirkcaldy ice arena. ive heard its a ggod experience though. theres usually one or two fights as well thats adds to the entertainment.

have a good one

It was a decent evening.

The Flyers won 4-1 and the kids all said that they want to go back again so they must have enjoyed it too.

The fighting action was sadly lacking, at one point a Flyer squared up to a Warrior and swung for him but only half connected however the Warrior was obviously in no mood for a fight and took a dive and hit the deck to howls of "Chicken" from the crowd. That was a laugh :)

Seemed like half the crowd were kids so I'm guessing that half of Fife were given freebies. A good initiative really if it brings in a few extra regulars.

And here's the said incident in pics :)
