It was "HEB Night," so all tickets were $5, nice crowd. My wife stayed at the motel, so I was able to get a single right behind the Buck's bench. The game went to a shoot-out, just like this one, but the Buck's lost that time. I saved an ear of "Buck's Corn" as a souvenir, and I keep it handy to through on the living room floor when I'm watching a game on the NHL Network! One surprise I had: I grew up in the Chicago area (I'm now retired in Arkansas), and we used to go to Blackhawk's games. Terry Ruskowski was always a 'ball of fire' for the BHs back then---and it was a nice surprise to see him coaching the Bucks last year. I had my little digital camera with me---no hassles to bring it in!---and took a few photos of the game---as well as of Coach Terry up close and personal. It was a nice evening spent in Laredo, we enjoyed the town (and the food at Taco Palenque)!

I am not surprised about the camera thing, for some reason they are kind of strict on cameras. You shouldn't have had any problems coming in to the LEC with the camera since there is a sign at the entrance that prohibits cameras with removable lenses.
