Sports reporter Andrew Tucker has coped with the loss of live sports by looking back to the past, like the 2003 season when the Detroit Red Wings won the Stanley Cup, and team captain Steve Yzerman gave a personalized jersey to President George W. Bush at the White House.
My Town: Places I like to unwind after a busy day of covering sports
Badger High football field
While I enjoy covering all the various sports in the area, it's tough to beat the energy and atmosphere of a Friday night football game under the lights, especially when a major rival team rolls into town.

Geneva Theater
Ever since I was a kid, I've been a movie buff, so I've spent many afternoons and evenings in the Geneva Theater checking out the newest films, no matter the genre, whether it's an indie Oscar-bait drama or a new Marvel or Star Wars blockbuster.

Gordy's
I'm usually out and about covering a game on Friday nights, but when I occasionally have a wide-open Friday evening, I try to stop by Gordy's in Fontana for their fish fry, which I personally think is the best in the area.

George Williams College rocking chairs
On the campus of George Williams College in Williams Bay, there is a lakefront porch with rocking chairs that is the perfect place to spend a summer afternoon reading a book, watching the waves roll in, and enjoying the sunny weather.

Lake Shore Path
The Geneva Lake shore path is a gem of the area, and spending a few hours walking on the path is one of my favorite ways to enjoy the lake's natural beauty during the warm-weather months.

Flat Iron Tap
With a diverse selection of beers on tap and a unique menu, including bison and lamb burgers, I like to stop by Flat Iron Tap in Lake Geneva for a bit fancier take on the American classic dinner of burger, fries and beer.
