Sorry but this one needed a caption. This is at the family skate before the 2022 NHL Stadium Series game in Nashville between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Nashville Predators. On right is the Lightning's Edouard Luc Belmarre #41with his kids.

I had to Google what a Ladas was.
I was told that photo was taken somewhere around Toronto after the Russians invaded Afghanistan.
I used have a Lada in England, their Polish I think. Very basic cheap crap cars, their not allowed in UK now because it doesn't matter how hard you try they can't pass the British emmisions test.
I remember when I got mine from an auction for next to nothing and told my eldest that i got a new car, he was 15 and took one look at it before telling me that he was never going to be seen by his friends in THAT!!
Here's what I had. 1982 Lada Riva LOL.
I was wrong, their Russian not Polish, but the Polish did similar cars called the Polski Fiat

A man walks into a Lada Dealership "I'd like a hubcap for my lada".
Ok say's the Dealer "Sounds like a fair swap".
Why do Lada's have heated rear windows?
To keep your hands warm while your pushing it.
The definition of an optimist, putting a car alarm in a Lada.
Yup, Ladas were licensed built copies of an Italian a Fiat. Even came with a hand crank in case the battery died iirc.
Looks like I did remember correctly.

That reminds me of a guy that used to come in to buy keys for his Yugos. He was a collector and he had a bunch of jokes. The only one I remember is
Did you hear about the gang members with a Yugo?
They were involved in a push by shooting.
Rare sighting of Floyd the fugitive Flamingo in Texas!!
