Wahlburgers is a Boston burger restaurant owned by chef Paul Wahlberg in partnership with two of his celebrity brothers Donnie and Mark. There are 14 locations, but only 1 in Nevada… and this one is located in front of the Bally’s hotel and casino, in the shops and restaurants area. […]
So it’s been 2 months, and that means it’s time for another Vegas visit. Now that the casinos have started charging for parking, I try to stay at a Caesar’s Entertainment property. However, the Cosmopolitan is still my favorite hotel/ casino on the Las Vegas Strip, and recently […]
There’s a new Mediterranean restaurant called SAJJ in Ranch Santa Margarita (or RSM to the locals). They call it line style ordering… but you will relate more if I call it Chipotle or Subway style ordering. You pick your base, whether its a bowl, wrap or pita. Then you […]
GRAND OPENING MARCH 21! Eddie World will be one of my new pit stops as I travel from So Cal to Vegas. it’s located in Yermo, off Calico (right before the CA Food/Agricuture Inspection station) There’s a huge gas station with competitive prices ($3.35 for regular gas as […]
It’s a Cracker Barrel. You come here for the inexpensive, brown or yellow food. There’s not a whole lot of food that’s considered fresh and healthy. Even their green beans are cooked with bacon, and limp like a can. The good part is I don’t have to drive […]
Happy Chinese New Year!! My mom wanted to get the family together for the Year of the Dog, and my sister recommended a different place about 10 minutes away. Unfortunately, that place was closed for the New Year, so I yelped this place. It’s located in a little […]
Pie Dog is probably Stephen and my favorite burger place. I like this place for their burgers made with 1/2 rib eye, 1/2 sirloin patties. I had the plain ol’ GI Joe, while Stephen had the My Cousin Vinnie, a burger with marinara and sausage. Stephen likes their […]
Living in the West Coast, I don’t get to experience the true 4 seasons unless I travel to other parts of the country. I got to experience a week of winter and snow, and let’s just say that my thin blood was looking forward to going back to […]
The Ducks lost the last 2 games played in Toronto and Montreal. We were hoping that this last game of the road trip would turn out better. The KeyBank Center is located down the street from our hotel, and was within the “free zone” of the local metro […]
When in Buffalo, you should try the famous “Buffalo” wings at the famous Anchor Bar, right? We normally would, but with the weather outside being snowy (and freezing) plus we had a game in a few hours, we decided to try the “next” thing Buffalo was known for… hot […]
We traveled by Plane, then Train.. and now automobile. This part of the trip is not part of the Road Crew. Twenty five fans traveled independently with me by bus to Buffalo to catch the 7:00 game against the Sabres. I hired a 56 passenger bus by Coach Canada, and our […]
Getting tickets at the Air Canada Centre is difficult. Getting tickets for almost 100 fans should be near impossible, but somehow the Ducks got us all tickets. However, they were in the gondolas located high above the arena, and we had to take an additional elevator to get […]
The reason the Ducks chose Toronto for this year’s Road Crew city was 2 former players: Teemu Selanne and Paul Kariya were inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. It made perfect sense to visit this city, and to check out the Hall of Fame’s newest inductees. After the morning skate, […]
The Road Crew scheduled for fans to watch the Ducks morning skate after our tour at the DK (Doc) Seaman Hockey Resource Centre. Although it’s not always a given, we’ve been fortunate to watch the Ducks practice during most of the Road Crew trips we’ve taken We arrived just as the […]
We only have 1 day in this city and the Ducks packed a full day for us, starting at 7:30 am. When we checked in yesterday, in our packet was a $35 gift card for Tim Horton’s, or Timmy’s as its more fondly named, where we would use that […]
It’s is rare when our Road Crew trip falls on a Super Bowl Sunday. The last time was in Pittsburgh, and the Ducks hosted a party at a local bar, provided drinks, heavy appetizers, and prizes. This trip was no different. The Ducks (and radio guy Steve Carroll) […]
Our journey continues by way of a train from Montreal to Toronto. Our departure time was 8:55, but we were dropped off early in case people had to check in luggage or wanted to get some breakfast. Since we had carry on, Stephen and I went to Starbucks […]
