Sporting Dilemma - Chicago Bulls or Blackhawks?

Basketball or Icehockey?

[ThomasB]

We're currently in Chicago and don't know if we should go to the Blackhawks or Bulls. We want to see american-style sport with all this stuff connected to it from beer to hot dogs (that what we see on european TVs).

What would you vote for and how to get the best tickets?

Hockey (as a former player myself, however I love the Red Wings!)

ok, we asked some locals as well and they suggested the Bulls. So we'll go there on 3rd. Any suggestions on how to get the best tickets?

Locals, schmocals. See the hockey game. Much more fun than basketball. ;)

I vote for basketball. The Bulls are playing Paul Pierce and the Celtics on the 3rd.

>>American-style sport

Basketball. :) Hockey is not an American sport. Hockey, is Canada's game.

Best sport on the planet to watch live is hockey. Shame about the Hawks though, they are pretty weak.

hockey is hard to watch on tv because so much of what happens is off the screen. i watched a game recently on hdtv widescreen and it was so much closer to live it was amazing.

i think once hdtv gets more widespread the interest in hockey will grow significantly.

>hockey is hard to watch on tv<

Sit in front of the tv, not on it.

I could follow it with one eye closed, while being hung upside down by my ankles while watching it on one of those little "watch" tv's. :)

I'll second that pmac.

Hockey..always hockey. And if available..always the Toronto Maple Leafs. Understand? Accept no substitutes!

Go Leafs Go!

You are one as well. You just don't realize it yet. :)

I will never, ever root for the loafs again.

The last straw was when they brought back Wendell the second time.

I am a person in line to inherit season tickets and I still hate the buds.

I can take those off your hands...

Just to help you out of course...

I'll pay you a significant sum. :)

How do you call fieldhockey in the US. When we in Holland refer to hockey everybody means fieldhockey. US hockey is just calles icehockey.
