It took less than 30 minutes for the National Hockey League's outdoor "Ice Bowl" game to sell out yesterday, leaving the league thrilled that interest is so high for the Jan. 1 matchup between the Penguins and host Buffalo Sabres.
With such demand, though, some Penguins fans were left, well, out in the cold.
Team vice president of communications Tom McMillan said the club heard from many who were disappointed or angry that they were not able to buy seats for the AMP Energy NHL Winter Classic, which will be played in the Buffalo Bills' Ralph Wilson Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y. The venue seats nearly 74,000.
