DU Hockey


I went to the DU hockey game tonight with my friend Stuart. It has been quite a few years since either of us has been to a game there. DU trailed until the third period, when they were able to come from behind and finish with a tie. What I want to know is what ever happened to the DU Mighty Mites? They were a group of young kids - around 5 to 10 years old - that used to play an abbreviated hockey game between periods. The DU Bookstore used to operate a gift shop at the arena at the time, and the Mighty Mites seemed to spend most of their non-playing time at the store, driving the cashiers crazy. They would run around the store in groups of 10 or so, asking how much everything cost, wanting to know what they could buy for a dollar, etc. etc. It wasn't much fun for the cashiers, but a lot of fun to watch.
