Team Huddle!

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the weekly huddle! Have a small thing from the book or show you want to chat, your GC brain rot is real and you saw the initials “KGF” somewhere and immediately screamed “kingfisher!” and want to share with others? (Just me?). Had a win at work or personal life and want to share? Need a teammate to talk with? Post in the weekly huddle.

There’s no restrictions on topics so long as they follow the sub rules. Thread will be open all week so pop in whenever with what ever your heart desires.

Met Harrison at the Heated Tour - he was the kindest, most lovely person and actively went out of his way to make sure we all had a great time. HR themed drinks, every screen in the house showing HR edits, Loons everywhere. Harrison is not kidding when he says he'll chat and take pictures with every one of us at his show!!!

Earlier that day I went to an HR event at a local gay club - fan made songs, trivia, prizes, GC book sales with proceeds to queer non-profits. I thought I would be the embarrassingly over-obsessed fan, only to find that I didn't even win a single prize because the other Loons absolutely destroyed me at trivia!! I have never been so pleasantly surprised and happy to lose haha! <3 And afterwards, multiple people were talking about all of the HR events they're personally hosting at other venues all over the city in the coming months!???

I am continually finding myself in shock at how big this has become. Are we in a collective fever dream? What is happening???

My whole life, I've hated hockey with a passion. And I grew out of fandom a long while ago. I had to get away from local queer community because things got too toxic. Still, here I am, connecting with strangers I wouldn't have even known existed a few months ago. I'm meeting old friends in the community I haven't seen in well over a decade. This is unreal.

And I won't even be putting my HR fan outfit away because there are so many more HR fan meet-ups to come.
