Liam Theo & Hockey

If you know me or have seen anything by me online, you know that I’m a huge fan of hockey and it’s a big part of my life. My life with hockey began when the USHL added a team to my hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska. The Lincoln Stars are a tier-one junior hockey team in the USHL and introduced me to the game. My parents had season tickets to the Stars for a few years. In February of 2016, I went to my first-ever NHL game and since have been to quite a few more.

What Hockey Arenas/Rinks Have I Been To?

With hockey being such a huge part of my life, I’ve made it a goal of mine to go to as many NHL games as I can. If any opportunity arises, I do my very best to go. I recall driving two and a half hours from Pittsburgh to our campground just outside of Cleveland, only to drop off our bags and the dogs to then drive another two and a half to Buffalo for a Sabres preseason game. Many adventures prior to full-time RV living were planned around the possibility of going to a game or two. So, here are the lists of arenas and rinks that I have been to, to watch a game.
