DU alums DG & ScottA attended a AHL game between the Houston Aeros (Peter Mannino & J.P. Testwuide) and Chicago Wolves (Wade Dubielewicz, Kevin Doell) last night. We took a couple of Boone posters left over from the NCAA Regionals in Albany.

In the 2nd Period we moved down to the front row behind Mannino's goal with the Boone posters. Mannino saw the posters and laughed and then pointed to Boone on his helmet. Later in the period he pointed to the Boone stitched in his leg pads.

Naturally we made the Jumbotron in the 3rd Period with our DU sweaters & Boone posters as Mannino recorded a 4-0 shutout and was named #1 Star of the Game.

Yeah, it was a great game for Mannino...but don't mention what happened to Dubbie (pulled after 2 periods) Oh the horror !

It sucks being a Sioux fan. I have to go to NHL games to watch Alumni play.

Ha! I saw you guys and tweeted that some DU alums brought posters of Dubie. ;) He's a hot mess, but at least Mannino was amazing.
