Chris Griffith to Appear on "Fans in the Stands"

Chris Griffith will be Wendy Bartle's guest for this week's St. Patrick's Day edition of "Fans in the Stands" which can be seen during the first intermission of the Komets Game of the Week broadcast. Chris is a transplanted fan, having moved to the Fort Wayne area from Coldwater, MI while he was still in high school. Despite the fact that he grew up watching the Kalamazoo Wings play, his blood now runs indisputably black and orange, though he does still follow his other favorite team from boyhood, the always intimidating Detroit Red Wings. Among other things, Griffith will discuss his reaction to the Kalamazoo Wings leaving the IHL last summer, his transition to Fort Wayne fandom, and his opinions on this year's Komets squad. Remember to tune in to Comcast channel 55 or Verizon Fios 25 on Wednesday, March 17 at 8 PM or Thursday, March 18 at 4 AM or Noon for a wee bit of "Wearin' O' the Green" fun and to learn more about Chris and his love of Komet (and Red Wing) hockey.

UPDATE: I have just been informed that the game that airs tonight (March 17) will actually be the Komets game vs. the Muskegon Lumberjacks from Friday, March 12, but Chris Griffith's interview will be aired after the game. Something about engineers, edit decks and fishing -- whatever that means!
