UPDATED: Palin definitely dropping another puck –this time, in St. Louis
Special to the Post-Dispatch
Palin helps drop the puck at an Oct. 11 NHL game in Philadelphia
St. Louis area activists in both parties are telling Political Fix that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will head this way after Friday morning’s rally in Springfield.
Rumor has it that The GOP vice presidential nominee — who prides herself as a “hockey mom” — will stop by Friday night’s Blues hockey game, and drop the puck. No word on any other possible public events locally, if the above report is correct.
The campaign of the GOP presidential nominee, Sen. John McCain, said details would be available Thursday.
UPDATE: The St. Louis Blues has confirmed Wednesday night that Palin will be at Friday’s game, and will perform the first-dropped-puck honors.
Get over it people.
Love her or hate her, she’s probably the most well-known “hockey mom” in the country right now. I’m pretty sure if she wasn’t known as a “hockey mom”, she would not be at a Blues game, but that’s what she’s coming as. I’m sure she’s thinking of publicity, but If that’s all she wanted, she would be at the Rays/Phillies games throwing the first pitch. I applaud her for keeping in good spirits while in the Philadelphia arena. That takes one strong woman.
Go Blues!
Did you see the videos of Palin dropping the puck at the Flyers game? She was virtually booed out of the stadium. It must have been horribly embarrassing for her (AND her children). No wonder they’re (apparently) moving her out to the Blues’ parking lot; maybe the boos will be less evident there….
3 out of 4 high school drop outs I think are drinking the Kool-Aid BS that Obama is pushing.
All you Obama backers act like he is Jesus Christ. the way I look at it, there is only one person who has even come close to being nailed to a cross for me and for you and that is John McCain. 5.5 years as a POW.
I can’t wait for this ####### election to be over with.
Having said that, I’m thinking of buying tickets to the game Friday night for the sole purpose of booing Mrs. Palin.
without a doubt the most incompetent person we’ll ever SEE in our lifetimes. makes Bush look like Einstein, and I am a Republican.
Well said AlMacFan4Life
First of all she wouldnt even be here if she didnt have to go to court. Besides that I now have four tickets too sell.
Ugh. Say it isn’t so.
Blues . . . don’t you know about the Palin Effect? Ask the Flyers how well they did after her appearance there. Ask John McCain how well his campaign is doing with her on the ticket. She’s a negative!!!!
Will: “Without a doubt the most incompetent person we’ll see in our lifetimes.” Clearly, you’re doing much better than her, as is everyone posting here. I am assuming, of course, that we’ve been elected to high political office, made a decent sum of money, or been selected to run for national office.
Or maybe, Will, my assumption made an ass out of you and me.
Just when you thought the Blues were beginning to turn the corner, they are considering bring in Caribou Barbie!!?? What a joke. I suspect she will be booed out of the place but for the poor sacks who have a ticket, be prepared for the stupid frisking and metal detectors. The Governor of a population equal to Memphis, Tennessee dropping a puck while wearing a $5,000 dress and saying she’s, “a hocky mom!!” Couple the hiprocracy with the lies that continually spill from her mouth, disgust me even more. I really hope the Blues mail Friday’s game in. I’m a Blue’s fan but this is insulting.
