Coyotes vs Oilers at Jobing.com Arena



First of all, who calls an arena "Jobing.com"? There 's the Coliseum, Rexall Place, the Skydome, Maple Leaf Gardens -- names that sound somewhat like a sporting event might take place in them. But Jobing.com?

Last night we attended the Phoenix Coyotes-Edmonton Oilers NHL game at the arena where such things take place in Phoenix -- Jobing.com arena. We saw Howler the mascot, and we saw Edmonton win 2-1.


Ever wonder what goes on when the folks at home are watching commercials? Scantily clad girls come out and help clean the chips and powder off the ice.













This is the pre-game warm-up.


















There are two huge Coyote players in front of the Jobing.com Arena. It was like the town square, with lots of bars, shops and restaurants around.
Guy and Ben are turncoats, abandoning the Oilers for the night.





Howler the Coyote really got the crowds going!




Hey Rolly, I got your back! :-)


Six busloads of Canadian fans came over from Yuma, and hundreds of others, mostly snowbirds, came. A very nice facility, but what a helluva trip to get there, 45 min of freeway driving in heavy traffic.
