Perfect Duluth Day

Duluth: The Real Hockey Town USA?

This will only be of interest to the biggest Duluth-o-philes, Twitter nerds (like me) and possibly hockey fanatics.

Last night for about 10-15 minutes Duluth East was trending on Twitter in the United States. This means that there was an enormous amount of “chatter” about Duluth East’s victory over Edina in the MN State High School League AA Hockey Semi-Finals.

I can think of no other time in the past two years that anything about Duluth has cracked trends, not even at the height of our multi-media Google Fiber Blitz, about a year ago.

I didn’t see the trend with my own eyes but there were many comments about it, including this one from a very nice man in Connecticut.

Incidentally, for those who want to watch again tonight from Connecticut or anywhere, there is an online stream I have not had great luck with it, but it’s better than nothing.
