Ruby Tuesday #35: "Let's Go Canes!"


"My Canes Coffee Mug"
Raleigh, NC - January 2009 (Click to embiggen)

Ruby Tuesday - Are you red-dy? Hosted at

My sons are always complaining that they never know what to get me for birthdays or Christmas. this was one of the things they came up with on one particularly tough occasion. And it's fitting to use for this Ruby Tuesday since the Canes will be trying to even their playoff series with New Jersey Tuesday evening at 7:30.Violence UnSilenced

Very impressive mug! Glad someone said Hurricanes so I'd know what they are... Carolina Hurricanes, right, Mojo? Hope they win!! :) Happy Ruby Tuesday!

Go Hurricanes!

I miss this team when they were the Hartford Whalers...but RDU has proven to be a great market for the NHL. College basketball may be huge down there (NC State, UNC, Duke), but the NHL is exciting.

Besides, the Whalers main color was green...not agreeable with Ruby Tuesday!

A very nice gift from your sons. Bet the coffee tastes extra special in that pretty mug.

you've proved my point, no-one knows what to get men for their birthdays, christmasses, etc etc

Sunshinelene said...

That's interesting! Great for coffee!

Happy RT!

I don't know who The Canes are but I do like the mug. Looks heavy and durable and I like the red and gold logo.

Martha said...

I love coffee mugs! Have a great day!

Patti said...

Nice mug and I like how the light is reflected on the logo.

Leave it to my husband (Airhead 55) to have all that sports info in his head. I went to a few Whalers' games with him. That was fun.

Happy Ruby Tuesday!

Gayle said...

I love to collect coffee cups. This one looks like the perfect size.

Laura said...

Great mug!

Unknown said...

Looks full of coffee, wake up! :) Is it bad that I didn't even know who the Canes were? Sorry, I'm not into sports. :)

Nukke said...
