I just received this press release from Fox Sports Ohio that I want to pass along:

CLEVELAND, OHIO –FOX Sports Ohio is excited to air the Frozen Diamond Faceoff hockey game, presented by Meijer, between Ohio State and Michigan this Sunday, January 15th at 5pm. The game will be played on the outdoor rink at Cleveland Indians’ Progressive Field.
Fans should tune in at 4:30pm for the pregame show.

FOX Sports Ohio’s Dionne Miller will be reporting sideline along with FOX Sports Detroit’s Shannon Hogan.
We encourage fans watching the game at home to show their love to the Ohio State Buckeyes and be part of the online conversation by tagging social media posts and tweets with #BucksBeatBlue and #FrozenDiamondFaceoff.
For those heading downtown Cleveland to catch the game live at Progressive Field, come down early for the Pre-game Tailgate Party at Harry Buffalo, beginning at 1pm. The FOX Sports Ohio Girls, Hallie and Sara, will also join the party at 3pm to play games and give out cool prizes.
Great to see Fox Sports Ohio getting behind this unique event!
I've got a van full of family and friends headed up to this. We plan on doing some tailgating and bar hopping prior to the game. Can't wait and as of today, the weather forecast in Cleveland for Sunday is calling for snow flurries!
Anyone else out there goin? If so, what are your plans? Are you tailgating? Hitting up some local establishments? Just heading to the game? Do tell!
As always, follow @lightthelamp if you can't make it and like pics of hockey and beer!
