When the doors opened to Giant Center for the Hershey Bears home opener this evening, fans rejoiced. This meant one thing: Hockey is back for another season in Hershey.
Fans hustled to get to their favorite meal spots and hangouts to catch up with those they haven’t seen since June. These moments were not just between fans, but fans and staff members as well.
Common conversations focused on vacations, families, children, grand children, and of course the expectations of the new season. With new faces on the ice and a new VP of Hockey Operations (Bryan Helmer), there was a lot to talk about.
