Columbus Till I Die!

Another good (mostly) weekend in Columbus. The Crew won, the BlueJackets won, and oh, yeah, somebody broke into my car and stole my GPS unit.

(And I thought Dublin was the NICE part of Columbus)

The Crew had a nice pep-rally-type event at Easton Town Centre on Thursday night, followed by a playoff watch party at the Fado bar.

Went to my first BlueJackets game at Nationwide Arena Friday night. Columbus defeated Montreal 4-3 in a shootout. (I had mixed feelings about this - I was (sort of) rooting for Montreal)

In the wee small hours of Saturday, somebody broke into my car in the parking lot of the Embassy Suites in Dublin, taking my GPS unit in the process. I will say that the staff of the hotel were extraordinarily helpful in dealing with this problem - apparently about 10 other guests had the same thing happen.

And then the Crew finshed off the Kansas City Wizards 2-0 to advance to the MLS Eastern Conference final on Thursday night. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend. Abel & I had great seats near the Nordecke (crazy section).
