Giants play in 500th game
Today’s game against the Nottingham Panthers was no ordinary league game. Well it was, but there was an extra to it for the Belfast Giants -- today’s game was the 500th in the history of the club -- and although a 1000th game will really be cause for celebration, I didn’t want to wait until some time in 2017 to write about it. Forget about the pathetic score, this is a moment many people never thought they would see.
I would bet that if you asked the people of Belfast back in 2000 when the team started up, and there were many doubters around, the vast majority would not have forseen the Giants lasting this long. I would include many of the players and ownership in that. This project for them was probably not something long term, but enough fans believed in it and the players kept coming and here we are eight years on.
