First playoff game I ever attended and the first hockey game paid for with my own money. Bought a ticket from a scalper minutes before the game and wound up on the South blueline 25 seats up. People were leaving after the 2nd period, but I would be damned if my hard earned money was going to be wasted. After the Blues got to within one goal, it felt like the Arena was literally shaking. People pounding their feet on the floor, hands on the seat, the sound of everyone yelling - it was like not only were the seats and floor shaking, the air seemed to be vibrating. Seeing Wickenheiser get that puck in OT from where I was sitting - most awesome thing I have seen at a live event. Will never forget.

Wan't born until 4 years later unfortunately. First Blues game I went to was in '97 vs. the lightning.
Best game I have ever been to wasn't even a Blues game. Game 6 Dallas vs San Jose in 2008. The stars won the game and clinched the series in the 4th overtime. It had everything, glass breaing hits, guys being sent to the hospital, Ridiculous saves in overtime, Heroics by the home team's captain. I was sitting 7 rows up at center ice too. I still have the ticket.
I can't get the (Franking) youtube embed to work for the life of me so here's the direct link:

I don't even remember the MNM game. I was 12 years old. I didn't get really heavy into hockey until a year or two later.
But I have it on tape or VCD somewhere...and I've watched it many times.
Best game I ever attended was the game 4 sweep of the Hawks back in 1993.
The roof came off The Arena when Janney scored in OT.

I was there. Row B of the yellow padded nosebleeds. Best. Hockey. Game. Evar.
Never forget the place still packed and loud as (Frank) 20 minutes after the game was over.
