Whichever pro team is closest to you, go watch a playoff game, at some point. The atmosphere is electric. Jr hockey is super fun to watch, depending on the fan base. Sometimes, depending on the program, they attract a lot of fans. Some other teams barely fill the seats, so the experience, as a fan, can be mediocre.
