TAMPA – The countdown is on, the weather reports are getting closer and by the time we get to the end of next month, there will be an excitement in the air where sleeping the night before will be near impossible with visions of vulcanized pucks dancing in your heads.
So get everything lined up, put on your gear and you better be good for goodness sakes. Or, you know, get ready to drop the gloves as Jodi provides a song that will be like an ear worm as you hum Santa Claus is Coming to Town:
You better watch this
Don’t let it go by
You better not miss
I’m telling you why
An Outdoor game is coming to town
They’re making a rink
They’re making some ice
Gonna check twice
That the ice will freeze nice
An outdoor game is coming to town
We’ll see it all at Ray Jay
We’ve waited for this day
Announced by Gary Bettman
Outdoors we come to play
So, you better watch this
Don’t let it go by
You better not miss
I’m telling you why
An outdoor game is coming to town
Blaring goal horns, pirate ships, too
Pirate sweaters trimmed in sky blue
An outdoor game is coming to town
Stadium seats, a cannon that shoots
Pirate invasions back to our roots
An outdoor game is coming to town
The fans from Tampa Bay will
Have a blast to see
The Lightning skate and score and
Beat those Boston B’s
So, you better watch this
Don’t let it go by
You better not miss
I’m telling you why
An outdoor game is coming to town
ON FEBRAURY 1!
