AIR FORCE ACADEMY — Avalanche rookie Cale Makar was unsure of what to expect from fans on Saturday night for their outdoor hockey showcase when the team bus rolled toward Falcon Stadium.
But one glance out the window as Colorado neared the Air Force Academy erased any doubt.
The Avs and Kings, undoubtedly, were must-watch entertainment.
“Seeing all the traffic on the one side of the road was insane,” Makar said.
Thousands descended upon Air Force for the NHL Stadium Series with significant vehicle congestion keeping some motorists stuck in hours-long traffic jams outside the academy well after the game started.
