Minneapolis – As temperatures dipped to -8 degrees with a -24 mile an hour wind chill at the puck drop, Minnesota and St Louis fans showed up for the Winter Classic 2022, dressed for the occasion.
Team logoed hats, gloves and sweatshirts sold in record numbers at the merchandise store with some even selling out.
You know it’s cold when the vendors selling hot chocolate have a longer line than beer vendors.
