    Didn't they tell you that end is supposed to go up?

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

    Must have missed that memo. Funny thing is there was a Chinese man and his son out on the ice wearing helmets and I had.just finished scoffing at "those silly people wearing helmets skating in a circle. Phft!" Then down I go. Zamboni just went over and it was still wet. Too wet really. There are always some girls or young women practicing their figure skating and not paying attention to anything else in the world. One skated backwards out in front of me and when I tried.to go around her I did a Fred Flintstone. Feet went up and my head went down.

    Had this mask made for me in 1971 (age 15) and was playing on the travel Midget team. Our high school did not have a hockey team..so we got together with 8 other towns and had a town league for the next 3 years. Then it was the beer leagues...lol ...lots of fun. Played until 26. Then ....they talked Me into putting on my leather pads at age 40. Played 12 games and did OK. Was playing with kids 1/2 my age from Saint Anslems College....boy they could shoot and skate.

    Love that mask. The old gear and the hockey talk is making me wonder if there is an over 60 league around here? That might be a stupid idea.

    Cooper, that brings back memories. I had a Cooper helmet in college that stopped a shot I was trying to block, just got my head down in time for it to bounce off the top of my helmet. That hurt a little. Of course no face shields back then. Love the brown leather pads.

    There's no rink in my town so I have to drive either to Jacksonville, Tampa or Orlando to skate. All of which are roughly 2 hours away. They have "old guy leagues" in all three places. If I thought it was feasible I would be all over that. I think you should go for it Craig. I could live vicariously through you.
