The Hamilton Bulldogs were in action Saturday afternoon for a match against the North Bay Battalion.

Ahead of the game, CHCH’s Tim Bolen had an opportunity to drop the puck, in full costume, along with his two young children.

Bolen, dressed as Cat in the Hat, said he was “really nervous” but fortunately “he had his Thing 1 (Pippa Bolen, 4) and Thing 2 (Gabriel Bolen, 2 1/2) to help out with his nerves.”

The Hamilton Bulldogs lost the game against the Battalion, 3-2.
