Bakersfield Condors vs Anchorage Aces

I finally got around to taking my camera to one of our home games at the Bakersfield Centennial Garden.  I've had season tickets for 2 years (and went to practically every game the year before that).

This game was against the Anchorage Aces.  We got down 3-0, but came back with 3 goals in the 3rd period to tie it up and send it to a shootout.  Unfortunately, the Aces prevailed in the shootout, but it was a great game anyway.
