Homework (Patchaya)

A major sporting event


Earlier this year, I attended a Chicago Blackhawks hockey game at the United Center. It was my first opportunity to watch a game live in person so I was very excited.



When I arrived I was suprised to see such a large crowd ! I was told that over 16,000 people were expected at the game. Once I arrived at my seat I was amazed at how many people were in the stands. There is a large screen in the center of the arena that displays information about the players and commercials. During the American National Anthem all of the fans scream and clap for the entire anthem it was very loud !


The Hawks were playing against the Boston Bruins a team from the State of Massachusetts. There are three periods in a hockey game that are 20 minutes long. The Hawks scored the first goal in the first period and the crowd was very happy and excited !


I had an excellent time at the Blackhawks game. It is a very fun event that I would recommend to my friends. It is nice to watch sports on television but it is truely an exciting experience to be there in person.
