They sent a message in game one of their 2nd round, Western Hockey League playoff series vs. the Moose Jaw Warriors.

The Swift Current Broncos brought their "A" game and a couple of bus loads of noisy fans to the Moose Jaw Events Centre on Friday and they beat the Warriors 7-2.

A friend of mine noted that Broncos fans were louder than the hometown fans. He was correct. They had much more to cheer about.

Game 2 was a different story. The Warriors bounced back and beat the Broncos by that same 7-2 score.

The place was packed for both games. It was so much fun.

The 50-50 jackpots were huge and local residents won both. 

Rod Horsnall got a cheque worth $28,890 while Earl Bender cashed in a prize worth $26,358. 

They both got a 10-spot from me. I'm just glad the hockey club got the other half of my donation.

Did you miss out on the fun? That's OK. We're just getting started. Games three and four are in Swift Current tomorrow and Wednesday with game 5 slated for Moose Jaw on Friday.
