Shinny

Uptown Waterloo 014-2

After having a beer with Thad at Ethel’s on Tuesday night, he went back to work and I went looking for a shoot.  I intended to camp out and wait for something interesting to go by, but there was no wait at all when I rolled into Waterloo Public Square uptown.  There was a massive game of shinny in progress.

and precious little on the bench, too.  It was absolutely freezing outside at 10pm and more and more guys just kept showing up…

Classic shinny: no goalie.  That glove on the right is generally where the “net” appeared to be.

Happy winter, fellow Canadians.
