Meet Rick Buker, Author of "100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die"

Triumph Books, a popular sports publishing company that brought Pens fans memorable books including The Kid, about Sidney Crosby's rise to super-stardom, and Comeback Kids, about the Pens' 2009 Stanley Cup run, has released another book jam-packed with Penguins history.

100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die by Rick Buker gives an in-depth look at the franchise we love on a personal level. Triumph's website states here:

Whether you're a die-hard booster from the days of Jean Pronovost or a new supporter of Sidney Crosby, these are the 100 things every fan needs to know and do before they go to the Igloo in the sky.

If you bleed black and gold, then 100 Things Penguins Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die is for you. It offers the chance to be certain you are knowledgeable about the most important facts about the team, the traditions, and what being a Penguins fan is all about.

To celebrate the fall release of his book, Buker is holding two book signings in Pittsburgh this weekend.
