Just need to remember to take something like binoculars or opera
glasses.

Overall, though, I don't think a single fan in attendance is
going to worry about the rink being so small.  I was reading that
there were 900,000 people looking for tickets, and only about
54,000 being available.

Anybody who is there tonight is there because they *want* to be
there, and I won't hold that against them.
