It’s going to be cold during the 2022 NHL Winter Classic in Minnesota. Likely historically so.
But do the St. Louis Blues care about such silly concepts as temperature and weather? Apparently not!
On Saturday, before puck drop at Target Field for the Winter Classic, the Blues arrived at the stadium wearing outfits that were more appropriate for a trip to the beach instead of the snowy, frigid climate of Minneapolis in winter. The Blues adorned themselves in baseball caps, sunglasses, swim trunks, polo shirts, and flip flops, uncaring of the minus-5 degree Fahrenheit temperature in which they were walking.
It’s a glorious sight to behold, if only for it’s absolute ridiculousness.

Look, I appreciate the commitment to the bit here from the Blues, but god that has to be cold. Thankfully, during the game St. Louis will be dressed more appropriately for skating around in such frosty weather.
