Helsinki - Too much time on their hands.


Welcome to the Compuware NHL Premiere Games in Helsinki...
(Isn't that a lovely logo?)

Helsinki is a pretty nice town...
Not that I've seen any of it...

The arena is walking distance to the hotel, so I don't even have the excuse of
"Oops I missed the shuttle bus!"

Hopefully I will have a chance to get out this evening and shoot some pics.

There has been some photo opportunities here in Hartwall Arena.
Seems there's been a good amount of old-school cut and paste going on in the event office.

It started with the pic on the back cover of the game program...

Our favorite NHL CTO Peter DelGiacco making a pitch for Compuware.
(Wish I could get a sweet gig like that. Maybe a sponsorship by Beretta of Ruger?)

Well... You know those event people. Can't leave well enough alone. They have to push it. We have a copier and a nice picture to work with-
Let's see where we can put Peter's picture...



The Hartwall Jokerit Logo?


Cream for your coffee?


How about as a spokesman for the local popcorn vendor?

Then it started turning weird...

Yes, we have no bananas. We have no bananas today.
(A crowd favorite!)

And of course, when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro...

Seems like everyone wanted to get in on the action...

BillM makes his pitch as Compuware Man.


Aliya as Compuware Spokesmodel

And of course...

The Boys in Broadcasting make an appearance too.

More shenanigans to follow, no doubt.
