The Wall of Crap! Annotated version...




Returning followers know all about the hockey wall yadda yadda so on etc, but here is a closeup of all the crap behind the plexiglass. Now with descriptions!

Panel 1 is the back of an old barn seat, a Greg Millen autographed game used stick, and a team signed stick (Blues) from either '77 or '78. I don't remember and haven't looked it up again.

Panel 2 is some of the macfarlane figures, and in the hole for the window are the 3 statues the blues gave out for renewing season tickets (federko, hull, macinnis) as well as a brick from the old barn (see the theme? I miss the old barn a lot)

Panel 3 has a bunch of different stuff including 3 Pepsi bottles commemorating the Blues' first 4 years in the league. I'd like to point out that I have 3 of them and the one on display at the new blues area doesn't even have soda in it. Surrounding those are some of my pucks. You may notice some puck have people on them. That is me and the wife on our wedding day. Yes, we gave out pucks as our table gift at the reception, don't be jealous.

Panel 4 is more mcfarlane guys. Yes I have a lot of them, no they are not all out.

Panel 5 are my old Brett Hull comics from McDonalds. Those awesome things in front of them are my Don Cherry Molson bubba kegs. They are pretty kick ass.

Things to make it "homey"





Here are some recent additions to add to the coolness factor. The lovely wife, Mrs. Hockey Haven, this past Christmas got me a personalized bottle opener and framed one of my jerseys. There was that useless pole at the corner of the bar, and it's now useful by adding this sweet bottle opener. I removed the personalized part for stalking purposes.

The jersey is a special edition one to commemorate the gold medal wining hockey team, and is pretty awesome. Now with extra awesome in a frame on the wall.

The print with all the logos is one of my own little design. I haven't titled it yet, but if I did it would either be called "hello from 1967" or "this is cool, I should sell these".

This goes out to all the lazy people




We finally got our couch, which means if you are too lazy to stand and too slow to get here in time to get a bar stool or a spot on the Old Barn seats, you now have a place to sit that isn't called "the floor".

The top photo is taken from next to the 2 arcade games, which has a little seating area known as "the VIP lounge"
