Dating involves a lot of personal preference. That said, I could never date a pens fan. My personal preference is NOT for whiney little girlie men that have to perform certain favors for high ranking NHL officials in order to “win” the cup! So I couldn’t date a fan of such men.

The Bears once had an in-game skit where a Bears fan is out on a date with this woman. They go to the Park, Chocolate World, Hershey Lodge, and then a Bears game. When the sit down she takes off her jacket and shows she is wearing a WBS Pens jersey. The guy takes 1 look at her, knocks her beer out of her hand and leaves. That’s just shows when you meet your date the first thing you should say is “Hi, I’m *your name*. If you say your a pens fan, I’m gone”

Just think of the bets and terms that could come from dating a rival fan. Keeps things… fresh.

I think that dating is a lot like trades… You don’t do it inside the division, and you do whatever you can to avoid making trades inside of the conference. Rivalries are collectively off limits, however, they present an opportunity for fan conversion… covert, subliminal messages on the whining nature of your significant others “superstar” may bear fruit… The only thing better than dating an existing fan of your home team is converting a former fan from a rivalry…

Love the Toskala / Raycroft comment! And personally I don’t feel confident in my abilities to “sleep with the enemy” Just my $0.02

Go Caps!

I dated a Pens fan once, he was great and everything was going well until the playoffs. Didn’t last too long after that.. We’re still friends though!

I tried dating a Pens fan once… He brought a terrible towel to the bar when we were watching the Caps play the Devils right before the 1rst Pens game & the Winter Classic… that was our last date.
