I was there! I also have my ticket stub to the Monday Night Miracle. My ticket cost $14.00 with a $1.50 service fee added on. I was sitting in the upper circle in sec. 203.

I drove a rented 1976 AMC Pacer to the Monday Night Miracle. My 1973 Cutlass Supreme was in the body shop. I listened to Eric Clapton's "Blues Power" on the way to the game on cassette tape. This was years before the Blues used Clapton's "Blues Power" for their theme song.

I was there as well! Amazing night, though it definitely sucked that they lost Game 7. Still, great memory for sure.

Yeah I was also there.

Watching the replay some pretty neat comments from Federko and an interview with a young Brett Hull just drafted by the Flames at the 2nd period intermission.

After the 1st period, ESPN interviewed Bernie Federko. ESPN presented Bernie a birthday cake on his 30th birthday. The cake was blue and white with a Blue Note and his name written on the cake. ESPN also gave Bernie a watch. Bernie commented during the replay of the Monday Night Miracle game last night on Matrix Midwest that he doesn't remember the cake or the watch.

Brett Hull was still a college student at the U. of Minnesota in May 1986. ESPN gave Brett Hull a new watch for doing the interview after the 2nd period of the Monday Night Miracle game.

I clearly remember the cake I got on my 30th. It came from Unmentionnibbles, if I spelled that right.

Towards the end of the 2nd period of the Monday Night Miracle game, ESPN showed a cop in the stands using his billy club to hit a Blues fan multiple times. A male Arena usher dressed in a long sleeve white dress shirt and wearing a navy blue hat stands by watching the cop clubbing the Blues fan.

No Grateful Dead Night with Jake's Leg at the St. Louis Blues game this season. :( We might have out grown the space inside the Enterprise Center where Jake's Leg plays on Grateful Dead Night.
