Gamblers/Elton John/Gamblers

While many of us sleep this weekend, the operations crew at the Resch Center will be busy overight on Friday and Saturday changing from hockey to concert to hockey. The Gamblers host Indiana in the second round of the playoffs on Friday night and Sunday afternoon. Sandwiched between the two is an Elton John concert that will pack the house. What a lot of people don't know is that the ice never leaves. We just cover it up with a special material and set the chairs and stage on top of it. In fact, we keep the ice in pretty much for everything.

If Elton's concert is anything like the one he performed the last time he was here 6 or 7 years ago, we're in a for a treat. He played more than 2.5 hours straight. If you're interested in going, take a chance and head to the box office.

The Gamblers meanwhile are on a great roll in the playoffs. After games 1 and 2 in Green Bay, they head to Indiana for game 3 next Friday and game 4 Saturday if necessary. Game 5 if necessary will be in Green Bay Tuesday, April 27. Seems like forever. Hope to see you this weekend at one of the events!
