Hoop, hockey dreams: NBA All-Star game Monday morning; HNIC update

At The Rickshaw and just caught the NBA three-point shooting and slam dunk contests - the “birthday cake” dunk, with Gerald Green putting a cupcake with lit candle on the back of the rim, then taking a pass from a teammate, leaping up, blowing out the candle and stuffing the ball was priceless.

Anyway, according to The Rickshaw management, you can catch the NBA All-Star game at 9:20 AM tomorrow (Monday).

Go Bosh!

The Rickshaw is also looking into showing Hockey Night in Canada games on Sunday mornings (they are shown Saturday night in Canada). In early December, Cafe St. Laurent / Alfa advertised this event, but - shades of that NHL-less season a few years back - didn’t come through.

I hope to have more details on these HNIC games in the next week or so.

In the meantime, and as usual, keep your stick on the ice…

    I always thought you were the manager of Rickshaw…..anyways, I’d go to watch CNN about Presidential compaign even in Rickshaw if there any.

    @ XiaoK,

    If management means a regular customer who watches the NBA, eats a disconcerting amount of pub grub and likes occasional pints of Stella, then I’m your man.

    Cheers, Boyce
