There were about 30 refs. They are they dudes in the black shirts in the middle. Obviously there was some cheating but that's not really what it's all about. There actually is a large pond just down the road from the university that you could play a giant game on hockey on. It hasn't been very cold or snowy up here in Edmonton though.

... U of A is Arizona out here in the west...

Also, nobody calls 'bama U of A... it's always "Bama". Arkansas is called U of A more often than Bama...

There's a lot of U of A's, guy...

stop with the fucking U of A corrections, its stupid and all depends on where you live. If you cant figure out its alberta because of the huge fucking canadian flag then you're a dumbass

Alabama is UA, Arkansas is UARK, theres one U of A and its Arizona, idk what Alaska is but I guarantee is not anyone of these.

We had to go to court with Kentucky to get them to stop using "KU" and switch to "UK" full time.

Alaska just says Anchorage or Fairbanks... They don't specify the university of alaska part, really...

I was referring to what people actually call places though. Nobody at Alabama or Arkansas would say "U of A" in reference to their university... Hearing either school referred to as U of A would be about as rare as hearing "War Eagle" in Tuscaloosa or "Geoux Tigers" in Fayetteville...

Is gathering that many people impressive? No, not at all. My hometown minor league baseball team gets more people than that per game and THEY don't even think it's impressive.
