Street Hockey
This float from the Santa Claus Parade shows the very popular Canadian sport, street hockey. All you need is a net, a ball and a couple of kids and you are ready to play. What makes this particular game different is the goalie the kids are playing against - it is supposed to be Jonathan Bernier of our beloved Toronto Maple Leafs!

Love it!
When the pond wasn't frozen or too wet, we played with a real puck in our big garage... no rolling ball.
Very dynamic looking!
Ach! Rivals of our Washington Capitals. :-)
Looks huge fun. Or huge and fun.
A very cool float. The fireplug makes it! Growing up for awhile in Minnesota we played hockey on ice. Can't remember playing street hockey, but they did that in Texas.
If you get a chance check out http://floridafotos.blogspot.com today. I tried to add a bit of interest to a photo.
Every kids dream to play with a professional player.
tough competition! :) my money's on the kid in purple. :)
I'm liking these floats you've been showing. They aren't over-the-top like the floats of our Rose Parade on New Years Day.
Kids playing with sports heroes is very democratic and dear
