3/17/13 - 3/23/13

I did not have any hours in the office this week due to my Spring Break, but there was still a game on Saturday against Providence. I was put on Credentials and it was a very busy night for us. Before the game there was a youth hockey championship, so I had to make sure the two teams were going to the right locker rooms and getting right out when the game was done. This was important because after the youth hockey game was the sixth annual Guns N' Hoses game. This is a game that pits the Worcester Fire Department against the Worcester Police Department. A portion of the money from the tickets sold for the game goes to the departments. It is a great event to be involved in and be a spectator of. The event ended up selling a lot of tickets and the event was a success. But what was headlining the entire night at the DCU Center was another appearance by a local sports hero. New England Patriots' offensive lineman Logan Mankins was at the game signing autographs. Luckily for me he had to go through the Credentials Table first so I got to meet him and see him up close! Two weeks in a row of seeing a sports star at work! It was a long nine hours at the Credentials Table but well worth it.
