Good one JC... However, I can not take credit as the three insisted that they would be the only ones in the pic.  I imagine (with the white shoes & socks and all) they were simply showing off their athleticism!  ;D

Even Paul Newman would be impressed!

 :oops:Uh-oohhhhhh.....at this point I'm assuming they're some kind of players and not just fans?  And beings you're from Canada, I assuming probably hocky?

Ya see, it wasn't somebody famous or someplace recognizable. :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:  Or I could have offered up the excuse.....I'm from California......hockey isn't even on the radar screen down here. ;)  Just funnin with ya Grizz. :2vrolijk_21:

JC - you better rent the movie Slap Shot. If you don't know the Hanson Brothers, you're missing some serious laughs!

"Slapshot" is acctually the name of the movie  :2vrolijk_21: and yeah it's a good flick  :coolblue:  Also,  just a bit of trivia - The " Hansen Brothers " ( I think thier name is Carlson) really did play semi pro hockey (AHL) on the same team together in Johnstown PA in the 70's  :nervous:

A little more info on the Hanson Brothers since they are icons of comedy. There are actually 3 hockey playing Carlson brothers (Jeff, Steve and Jack). They were called and asked if they wanted to be in a movie. Jeff and Steve said yes but Jack had just received an offer to return to a team in the NHL so he declined. He went on to play for the then Minnesota North Stars. I have met him a few times so I know this. The third recruit was a guy by the name of David Hanson so you ended up with the three Carlson brothers being invited to play the Hanson brothers. One declined but a Hanson said yes so there were actually two Carlson's and a Hanson who got the roles. Interestingly enough, the Hanson brothers remain far more popular hockey players than any of the Carlson's ever were.

The whole story is here:

This sh** is important! Slap Shot is one of the great sports comedies of all times!
