Three Fun Facts to Celebrate the Stars

On 04/22/2014 at 12:58 AM by Super Step

1.The Dallas Stars just won 3-0 at home after losing to Anaheim 4-3 and 3-2 on their ice.

2. It has been said that the Stanley Cup was dented at a house party thrown by then-Pantera-drummer Vinnie Paul's house, when then-Stars-forward Guy Carbonneau threw it off a roof and into a Crown Royal-shaped pool.

3. This is a song that exists:

Apologies to anyone who thought this was about plasma spheres. To compensate, here are three Neil deGrasse Tyson tweets:

"According to the song, Rudolph's nose is shiny, which means it reflects rather than emits light. [This is] useless for navigating in fog."

"If Thor's hammer is made of neutron-star matter, [as is] implied by legend, then it weighs as much as a herd of 300-billion elephants."

And finally, I'll leave you with this one:

"Obscure fact: Skating is possible only because compressed ice melts. So skaters glide on slippery water, not on slippery ice."

I've got three facts about stars:

1. Ristar is better than Sonic.

2. Stars with eyes can make you invincible.

3. Sometimes you can ride on stars, especially in Dream Land.

I wonder if Ristar plays hockey. He looks like he would.

04/22/2014 at 07:16 PM

No I don't think Ristar plays hockey. He has all his teeth. Only thing SEGA has let Ristar do is wave the flag in the last SEGA character racing game.

He needs to start playing hockey then, his arms look like they need a stick in them.

New Stars goal song (keeping the Pantera too, of course):

I think Nicoleb1989 just told you you're going to hell.

I like the bass and song and Pennywise, but BOOO DUCKS!

Haha I think she did, it's cool, Lord Stanley's Cup is coming with us.

04/24/2014 at 07:58 AM

No, it's coming with us! All tied up and when you've won, it's only been by a point, we've kept your deficits greater!

Ducks benched Getzlaf and Selanne last night. The Ducks are winning the series on home ice.

04/24/2014 at 11:31 AM

We'll see.

04/24/2014 at 11:35 AM

Yup. I think it's the series is going the full 7. Everything goes crazy once the playoffs start.

04/24/2014 at 11:39 AM

Neil deGrasse Tyson is so cool, need to watch Cosmos when I get the chance.

It's not exactly what I expected. I didn't expect so much animation, but it is interesting.
