Group Shots - Just Hanging Out

Pretty much everything we do can be considered "just hanging out", given our level of hockey. In any case, these are the pictures when it's one of those times we're not representing the TSHA as a team, and so we're not wearing our "official" TSHA jerseys.

Loud British guy, Reggae Dancer #1, Ted Hunter, Dave Gutteridge (kneeling), Colin Kozik, Chad "Captain Canada" Goble (kneeling), Reggae Dancer #2, Michel Van Ackere.

The reggae dancers were practicing nearby in the park so we taught them how to play a little hockey, and they taught us so much more.

A secret meeting of the samurai entrusted with the task of transporting the Golden Godzilla to the 2008 Yamato Cup. Picture believed to be taken near Yomi, the shadowy land of the dead.

Names can not be revealed, not because of anything to do with the mystical importance of their task, but because they are also wanted in a completely unrelated case of illegal auto parts smuggling.

The "Dasai Mise", around 1998.

The "dasai mise" was our usual post hockey hang out. It was cheap and a little bit hostile to customers. To get an idea of how awesome this place was, they had these self serve fridges along one wall, where, amongst other delicacies, they had fried eggs wrapped in saran wrap that had been sitting there since the early Showa era. Unfortunately, after many years of us going there, they renovated it and tried to make it "nice" or something. We never went back.

"Shami chan", Hanako "The Accountant" Murao (check out that adorable smile! You'd never guess she'd kill you soon as look at you.), Paul Robertson (in the Stars shirt), Michel van Ackere, and cute Japanese chick in a Nike shirt.

Komazawa Koen, the first group shot, potentially at one of our first games at that park in late 1996 or early 1997.

Who the hell are all those people? Most of them can't be named. But...

Lars from Philadelphia in the green shirt on the far left. The Japanese chick in the grey shirt, not the one on the far left, but the second one in, is Nanako Onadera. She helped run the TSHA for a while. Paul Robertson is right in the middle, in the greenish shirt and blue shorts, grimacing at the camera. Right behind him in the inappropriately yellow shirt is Dave Gutteridge. Arron Keiselbach is right behind Dave. Tony Costos to the immediate right of Dave. Your right, not Dave's right. In front of Tony in the plaid shirt is that nurse who used to smoke like a chimney, and found the spot in the park that was to be our home for ten years. In the Bruins' shirt is George "The Man's Stick Must Be Lifted!" MacKray, who was also instrumental in running the TSHA in the early years. Neil Gaardesan is just in front of George. Everyone else is everyone else.
