If you are in or near the Twin Cities, Minnesota on Nov 25th, 2006 the USA National Bandy team is playing the Canadian National Team on the John Rose Oval. It starts at 4pm and is family friendly. I think it is free - more info here- http://www.usabandy.com.

Bandy (Bandy Wikipedia Link) reminds me of a combination of soccer and ice hockey.

“The OVAL is the largest refrigerated sheet of ice in the world … there is 110,000 square feet of ice at the OVAL“.

I’ve just started to play bandy and am having a blast. It’s a fun, fast sport and the Oval is such a wonderful and unique outdoor rink. If you are in the area, I highly recommend stopping out at the Oval this weekend.
