| - My nephew is a hockey fanatic. My niece is not a hockey hater but is not exactly hockey excited. I am a hockey fan. My fiancée is also not a hockey hater but is not exactly hockey excited. But somehow, this museum excited and kept all of us equally entertained for a good two hours. From the hockey memorabilia, to being able to touch the Stanley Cup, to the interactive games, to the replica Montreal Canadiens dressing room, this museum is a shrine for all things hockey. But I am most impressed in the HHOF's ability to keep all of its patrons happy, knowing not all will be hockey nuts.
My most memorable and enjoyable moment was watching my nephew, age 6 and current TimBit, playing goalie. While he only made a couple saves, he was having the time of his life, hearing the crowd cheer. His game face attracted onlookers. He was so into it. Watching him in the glory of his sport was so incredibly gratifying for me, and for all of us, and would make for an all but certain return someday.
