I was particularly impressed with their dazzling cross-ice passing skills--keep saucing that puck, boys! We spontaneously stopped in for a Tuesday night game while on a business trip, and had a great time. We had no problem getting a decent seat and the ticket prices were quite reasonable. The concourses have ample space for the crowd size, and there were a surprising number of stadium-food choices (though I can't comment on quality as we gorged ourselves at Parish Taceauxs before the game). The team gear store also has a wide variety of selections rivaling the AHL and ECHL venues that I've visited. My one cautionary note: dress WARM! Like in layers . . . and by layers I mean as many as possible. I left with an unexpected souvenir (a heavy weight Mudbugs hoodie) because I dressed according to the temps I was used to at NHL rinks, and I was FREEZING--and I am honestly never, ever cold. On this night when it was 30 degrees outside, I honestly doubt it was much more than 40 degrees inside. It was C-O-L-D!!! But don't let my business-travel wardrobe malfunction deter you. Dress appropriately and I promise, if you like hockey (or even if you are just a sports fan with an open mind and spirit of adventure), you will enjoy the facility, event staff and hometown camaraderie of the Mudbugs' fans. Go Mudbugs!

Messmer Stadium is located within this complex. This facility is owned and operated by the…read morecoeducational institution of Loyola College Preparatory (LCP) High School. It is a 3,000 seat outdoor stadium with a relatively new synthetic grass surface utilized for both boys and girls sports including football, soccer, and lacrosse, and also involving competitive grade levels anywhere from elementary through high school. Loyola's moniker on the sporting fields and courts is the Flyers. Their mascot is Snoopy. THE actual Snoopy cartoon character as drawn and created by Charles M. Schultz. Shultz gave permission himself, in 1966, for this school to use Snoopy's likeness in promoting its athletic and academic endeavors. It is the only school to this day, and in this giant world to legally have this right to present the beloved beagle as their very own.

Nice little truck stop in the middle of nowhere. There's nothing super cool or bad about the truck…read morestop itself, but every time I'm in the area I stop by because let me just tell you -- Sam's Eatery has the BEST fish on the planet. Now, the rest of it is just some run down casino as well as a convenient store/gas station. The gas prices aren't bad but the convenience store was disgusting, but I didn't expect much more. The casino, as I said, was rundown but I suppose It makes the stop unique.... Regardless of other things, as I said before, I stop there every time. Getting that fish is absolutely worth it. Honestly, store-wise Sam's Eatery has slow service, they're often out of things, the get orders wrong a decent amount of the time, etc. but oh my goodness gracious. It is still worth it. Come on down

This season (2017) is the inaugural season for the Ladies' team. They now join the men's team (also named Rafters-after The Great Raft that once clogged the Red River for miles, until Captain Henry Miller Shreve came along with his steamships and cleared the debris away!) in home matches at Messmer Stadium, also home to the Loyola College Preparatory Flyers. This is an improvement from the previous proving grounds of Lee Hedges Stadium. Now, they can and do serve beer! As a matter of fact, they now have an entire Beer Garden. Both teams. At their games, one can enjoy a 16 oz beer of their liking for five bucks! This is progress. Also, thankfully, admission ticket prices have lowered. Now, adult admish is $10! Children 4-12, are $5. Kids up to 3 years old are free! Debit/Credit cards accepted at the gate, and in the merchandise tent! In the off season, there was a change in ownership for both teams. This has also turned out to be a huge positive. I hope and wish for both teams to have continued support, and growing success.
