- Here’s the annual picture. •This isn’t Fri or Sat, it’s a weekday •It’s not primetime, it’s 1pm •It’s not pros, it’s high school •It’s not the championship, it’s a quarterfinal …and an NHL arena is sold out and buzzing. The Minnesota State H.S. Hockey tourney is amazing.

- I take this picture every single year… This is at noon. On a weekday. For a Quarterfinal. Of a high school game. …and there are 18,000 people packed into the building. #StateOfHockey #TourneysOn45 #Tourney22

- A scene I post pictures of every year: This is at one o’clock in the afternoon… …on a Thursday - a weekday… …for a quarterfinal - not championship… …of a high school sporting event. And **18,000** people are packed in to watch. Hockey hits differently up here, folks.

00:00 - He’d insist the attention tonight be on the Edina & Chanhassen players competing for a championship… …but part of tonight just has to be saluting @NanneLou calling his last game, closing out 60 years broadcasting the State Hockey Tourney. The State of Hockey thanks you, Lou.
- It’s my annual tweet, modified. This is a high school sporting event. Usually the pic is at the daytime quarterfinal Thursday, but I forgot. That quarterfinal’s attendance was 19,765. The Friday semifinal pictured here had 20,956. This is the State of Hockey. #TheTourney24
- I've watched a lot of hockey. I mean... a lot. NHL, college, rec league, high school, Olympics... you name it. This is one of the best games I've ever seen at any level.
- Bruce Springsteen opened his show in Brooklyn moments ago with... what else... an amazing rendition of Purple Rain. pscp.tv/w/1PlKQozwQEMJE

00:00 - There's the update... 3.1%. #MnTwins were at 95.4% on September 5th. Tigers were at 0.2% - that's a 1-in-500 chance - on August 13th. Incredible ships-in-the-night situation over the seemingly short period that followed.
