Looking for Pearl Jam and Penguins fans in Toronto to grab drinks and watch some Pens games this season (following in the footsteps of other meetup groups): http://pittsburgh-penguins.meetup.com/

1. anyone interested?
2. anyone know of a place that could/would host it?

I personally live downtown, but can look into places more central in relation to where other people live.

    quite simple really...when i was growing up, Mario Lemieux was my favourite player...

    i remember my dad taking me to my first game at Maple Leaf Gardens when i was a kid (around 1993 when both the Leafs and Pens were competitive) and sitting all the way up in the last row of the grey seats...i was wearing a Penguins jersey and shouted "LEAFS SUCK" during the pre-game warm up and all the people around me turned around and were like, "wtf is wrong with this kid?"

    good times! :D

    ahhhh ... i'm glad i've had the opportunity to watch mario play from up close ... his fake "shot"/let the puck go between his legs/deception so paul kariya could score in salt lake city is one of my all time favourite hockey plays ...
