We've got ice in St. Louis now.:eek: If the same thing happens in 2009 we could practice in the parking lot. Using batteries for power, of course; these ice storms are usually accompanied by widespread electrical service outage.

Anyway, our regional venue would be well suited to an ice game, because it is a hockey arena. Normally we cover the ice with plastic tiles and then carpet over that for the field. Maybe in '09 we can just remove some tiles instead?

If the volunteers (esp. referees and field resetters) are going to be ready for this, they have to get their skates on soon.:rolleyes:

Yep! Same here in NJ.

And maybe that would mean less people would get sick at the regional...those little blocks they use to cover the ice always seem to have everyone feeling under the weather (or that's one of the theories). ;)

Hehe, I have, and the Americans got beat up big time. Although this would be a cool game how consistent would it be? I mean after every game would you have that IceTraktor go over the ice to smooth it out? How would they keep the field consistent is my main worry. ALTHOUGH if you used treads properly it wouldn't matter.

CRAP!! :eek: what you mean that beautiful white thing we like to call snow. I have been missing it here in Toronto, today was actually our first official snow fall... and I have been missing it (it looks a lot better then yellow dead grass).
