My real hometown boys (The Winnipeg Jets) were playing my neeeew hometown team (The Nashville Predators) in the First Round of The 2018 Stanley Cup Finals!
I was proudly reppin the Jets and brought the Winnipeg White Out to Nashville... much to the dismise of all the Preds fans!!
​
I decided to have a little fun with the situation... so I posted ‘Pearson Pre Game Broadcasts’ from outside Bridgestone Arena on game day! Then I did a ‘Pearson Post Game Report’… summing up my experience as a Jets fan in Preds territory! As you can tell from these videos, I had such a blast!
​
So many fun opportunities came out of me being a proud Jets fan in Preds territory! I got to help paint the infamous Jets plane that the Preds fans smashed outside Bridgestone (I got a lot of heat for this... but hey I had to make sure it was done right)!
​
I was contacted by several radio stations and news outlets for interviews… my favourite article is the article in the CBC (Click here to read it)!
​
What a fun time, and an incredible series!! I can't wait to watch these two teams go head to head again next season!!!!
​
P.S. I should probably be a sports or news reporter... right?... k probably not... maybe though?
