According to an article in the Auburn Journal, a once-lost treasure from the 1960 Squaw Valley Winter Olympic Games might be coming back home.
The puck that was scooped up from the ice by a spectator moments after the UA beat the USSR 3-2 in Blythe Arena has been located in the Midwest. Now, officials woring with the Squaw Valley Olympic Museum are trying to bring it back to California.
Blythe Arena itself is long gone, and much of the Olympic village has been lost to time, so a return of one of the great mementos of the game would be a great addition for the upcoming Squaw Valley 1960 Celbration.
Wow they need that puck in cali.
