I had spent the season covering the hockey team and this was something I was looking forward to going up to Detroit and covering the games and taking photos for the first time in a National Hockey League arena. I remember getting my press passes and going into the side entrance of the building with the rest of the media. I got my typical nervous feeling I got before every game that year.
The Broncos were the late game the first day so I spent a good chunk of my time walking around the bottom level of the Joe.
