Bill Torrey, the legendary general manager of the Islanders who was the architect for the four straight Stanley Cups at the start of the 1980s along with the seemingly unbeatable record of 19 straight postseason series victories, died late Wednesday night at his home in Florida. He was 83.

Many years ago we traveled to Calgary to watch an NHL game, and at one point the announcer introduced her to the crowd. She was sitting a few rows behind us.

Ah well, end of an era of a kind.
Wolfe's "From Bauhaus To Our House"
a classic, albeit late arrival screed about modern architecture.

Many years ago we traveled to Calgary to watch an NHL game, and at one point the announcer introduced her to the crowd.

This intrigues me as much as it bothers me, how is the announcer finding out these people's identities? As people age & fall into obscurity, they are not always easily recognizable. Are they asking for their presence to be announced? Are they getting any compensation for their presence? If not, it would seem quite obtrusive, especially for those who would not want the attention.
