Tim Hortons’ “The Away Game”

Tim Hortons:

There’s only one hockey team in all of Kenya. They had nobody to play. So, we brought them to Canada for an unforgettable game.

Everyone knows how important hockey is to Canada and Canadians. For almost every Canadian kid, our memories of youth hockey are intertwined with Tim Hortons. After every practice or game, your coach would take you to “Timmies” for a hot chocolate and a doughnut. Tim Hortons probably sponsored your team. So, even though I despise their coffee (but love their doughnuts), I’ll always have a soft spot for Tim Hortons. If I was feeling homesick when I lived in Connecticut, I’d ride my motorcycle a couple hours north to the nearest Tim Hortons for a doughnut.

I still hated their coffee though.
