High Heels and Hoops? Or is Ladies Night Necessary?

By | June 4, 2009 | Talking Trash | 1 Comment

A friend tweeted yesterday that last night was Ladies Night at Nationals Stadium, a self-described “pre-game happy hour followed by on-field action.” Activities include player and celebrity appearances, massages and manicures, food, product samples and demos, and, most confusingly for me, “exclusive shopping opportunities” for “jewelry, cosmetics, handbags, and more.” And presumably there’s a ball game in there somewhere.

The Washington Capitals Club Scarlet, likewise, may just sound like a place where ladies remove their ice skates and perhaps other things, but is actually an online and real-life destination for female fans, presumably of hockey but more importantly of the team who suffered once more this year from the Pittsburgh curse. Need Hockey 101? It’s here, pop-up video style. (Mostly) girly Caps gear? Check.

About the author
Laurie won her first writing award at her Maryland Catholic elementary school - an envelope of two-dollar bills from football-crazy nuns - in the second grade for a poem about the Washington Redskins. She still does not understand downs, so this just proves that she will write just about anything for the promise of money and minor glory. Try her. Her other interests include the WNBA, Dayton basketball (Go Flyers!,) tailgating, Capitals first-period goals, three-pointers and beer. She dislikes any former Patrick Division team, (especially the Pittsburgh Penguins and Philadelphia Flyers) overtime any time and serial retirers. She will someday have Capitals season tickets, attend an NFL game, and understand downs. Other writing happens at LaurieWrites and BlogHer. She still lives in - and loves - Maryland.
