No matter where you are on a little street in Dayton Ohio a rink in the Savannah or hell even rollerblading on the Great Wall that speed that stick and just knowing the pucks on your stick 🏒.... there's truly nothing more perfect
That was the individual franchises that abused the hours/pay and head office made the franchises correct what they had done. As for the food depends on the locations, I've gone to timmies across Canada for 30 years and probably 99/100 have been great experiences and the bad they always fixed it!! Starbucks food & drinks is 3 x the price and always like a few days old. Depends on the coffee too, their black coffees suck but thats why double double is the most common lol Thats my main go to, however had their black recently and i agree bad.
@Mo/riellyMoProblems Maybe you should try that specialty coffee made from coffee beans that are picked out of elephant dung. www.bloomberg.com/news/photo-essays/2017-01-27/world-s-priciest-coffee-is-hand-picked-from-elephant-dung
There's something about hockey that brings people together. No matter where it's played, even in Kenya, it connects people like no other sport can. Props to Tim Hortons for bringing capturing that feeling. I think Crosby said it best "I think I had just as much fun as those guys did" Whether you're a pro, or learning to play in Kenya, you'll fall in love with hockey!
Gonna add this one more time. Waiting for your coaching skills on the rink. You can explore the Nairobi National park on Wednesday morning then join us on the rink at night. The invite will keep on coming :D
I don’t understand how anyone could not like this story. It’s not about Crosby or MacKinnon. It’s about hockey. Growing this amazing sport. Well done Tim Hortons!
This is what it's all about. You can hate the Pens, you can laugh at the Avs. But for Crosby and MacKinnon to go out and participate in this is amazing. This is why we love Hockey. 🏒 I love seeing Hockey being played around the world, having games done in China. Seeing rinks in Africa. Thank you, TH.
Eddie VIII that’s because hockey isn’t all that popular in a lot of countries. It is expensive because of the rink time the rink it’s self, the equipment etc. it’s not a cheap sport but that’s why there are trying to gain more attention to it by bringing it to China and they had a Muslim girl come out and meet the capitals last year and now Kenya this year. Stfu this is a moving story and they have a go fund me to fund this under privileged people and they have Kraft town every year where they build a hockey rink for a small town. So come with facts next time instead of this negative racially targeted remarks
If you're from Toronto like me, you'd know that Nazem Kadri is Muslim. You'd know that when you go to Maple Leafs Square there are people from all colours wearing the blue and white. The fact that it's a rich white man's game doesn't really change anything. Basketball and football are predominantly black american's from poor backgrounds.
Absolutely amazing. The looks of pure joy when they walked into the locker was priceless. I sometimes forget how fortunate I was to grow up playing the best sport in the world.
I got chills watching this. When one of the Team Kenya players was talking about how nothing else matters when you're at the rink. Things like this will always make hockey the best sport in the world!!!
@@moriellymoproblems7842 One game doesn't mean their defence is all of a sudden better. They've still allowed the most goals against in the league. Don't be one of those fans who never talks bad about their team because you're just lying to yourself.
@@jefft3217 They've also played more games than most teams, and if you bothered to look at the standings and compare GA relative to GP, you'll realize it's not the nightmare scenario you think it is. Don't be one of those bandwagoners who posture about being objective just to fish for likes. It's pathetic.
Literally crying. I love what sports can do for people and the impact it can have on their lives. And as someone suggested on Twitter it would be really cool for the NHL to make some of their jerseys and have the proceeds go towards their team for equipment and anything else they'd need!
Two thumbs up and a hat tip to Tim Hortons. Great work on this one. Really awesome. Thanks also goes to Syd and Nate, as well. That had to be a great time.
@Karan Singh Sounds like you have some good ideas. Why don't you open your own donut shop and see how the marketplace likes them? Or do you just sit in the cheap seats and throw popcorn?
Tim Hortons, good move. Good bloody move. I can't even hate on this and I love to hate shit. Hate is easy. You made hating difficult today and made loving easier for a hater like me. What a pleasure to watch
It was cold today , I was walking home from a hockey practice . I was going to sleep with a cold hearth and when I watched this , it warmed it . Really nice work Timhortons . Made my sleep happier .
A great example on how sports unite us. Thanks Tim Hortons for sponsoring this wonderful and rare sporting event. You can see how grateful the Kenya players were, especially when they saw their favorite player, Sydney Crosby, play alongside them. Great job!!!
Lets get then a couple nice NHL proportion rinks as well! In 16-17 years, maybe we could see them send a junior team internationally. That would be really cool.
I said this to a Canadian just the other night while watching a game. There's something about (ice) hockey (sorry, I'm a Brit) that just isn't there in other professional sports. And then this video comes along. Fantastic stuff, inspiring.
Too bad you did not see Hockey in its early days before helmets, mouth guards, padding. To be a hockey player your front teeth were missing as they fought hard. So much real blood on the ice. Good times. Definitely savage.
This was well done, Tim Horton would be proud. Canada is great for hockey and this just proves it. It was a thrill of a lifetime they will never forget and now they can pass the thrill on to new generations. Street hockey in Kenya, fantastic
This is what the world needs more of. People who have the resource to help make less fortunate peoples dreams come true. Not by being forced to help, but willing to help even though no one told them to.
I just suppose that some people don't like the business/promo smell of Hortons in the whole video from the beginning till the very end. I would rather see how families doing coffee business for Hortons live in Africa than watching few boys doing a super expensive sport which is clearly only for the very little lucky ones. Dreams yes but rather dreams of normal people having full belly every day. 🙂
Best advertising possible. I will be buying a coffee next time I am out! This is how a company should be advertising, the positive words will have more value than any equipment or plane tickets spent. In both a business and real world aspect this is just amazing.
Normally I would not watch aTim Hortons video because we're bombarded with their commercials on TV, but this is awesome. Incredibly moving. Great story!😄👍
The guy that said when you're in the rink, nothing else matters - you're whole life stops - is exactly right. I remember as a kid playing minor hockey - I could have 15 hours of homework to do and 3 tests to study for the next day, but it never even entered my mind while I was playing a game.
The only thing that would have made this even better for these guys, is if they got that little rink just absolutely loaded to the rafters with fans, or just anyone really. And let them really feel what it's like when the crowd goes wild when you score.
Seeing the man touch Sidney Crosby’s face made me happy inside , Tim Horton’s good idea giving these dudes in a hot climate another level of fun , I didn’t grow up with hockey living in a hot climate but I’m growing to love it
Glen Krajca-Radcliffe they did that before. They made around 40 jerseys. 20 for fundraising and the other set went to the players. The jerseys were about 120 each I think.
Ben is my husband and I come back here every so often just to see this video and it makes me love him more and support him more as he pursues his inspiring dream.
Yoo i seen a documentary on the kenya team a year or so ago. This made me so happy. Hockey brings us all together. If I could I’d donate my goalie pads and shit. This is why I choose Tim Hortons, good on you!
That’s was one of the most incredible things I have ever seen!! Sid and Nate are all class and amazing fellas, and they both come from my home town! #eastcoastboys! Great work Tim Hortons on this project it was well done!!
well done TH !!! * you can see it in their faces what a real joy this was for them . suggestion = you should have let the general public know what was going down + i'm sure they would have filled that arena with support .
Hi everyone, we love this question. Thank you for taking the initiative. There’s a GoFundMe page set up for this very purpose, you can check it out and donate here: www.gofundme.com/kenya-ice-lions-hockey-campaign.
This is absolutely beautiful. And I love Crosby! I would love for this team to come to Texas and play the Stars! So I can watch them and meet them too. I think NHL should definitely help them become part of the league! Their jerseys are absolutely beautiful too! Such a great story. We're constantly surrounded by negativity and terrible news so this is definitely a refresher and a reminder that there are good people in this world that do good things. Love this. P.s you should definitely put some links to any website or Facebook or social media this team has. So we can all help support them. :)
So cool! Big props to the guys in Kenya who were inspired by watching the game to start their own league; that takes hard work and dedication. Really cool of Crosby and McKinnon to share their passion for this amazing sport. Great job all around. And let's not forget Timmy's who footed the bill. Nice going :-)

0:40 "Ice hockey is fun 'cos when we are in the rink nothing matters...the whole world stops." THIS GUY GETS IT RIGHT HERE. So true. Love this.
No matter where you are on a little street in Dayton Ohio a rink in the Savannah or hell even rollerblading on the Great Wall that speed that stick and just knowing the pucks on your stick 🏒.... there's truly nothing more perfect
As a Kenyan, this video brought me to tears. Thank you Tim Hortons, and thank you Canada!
This is so lovely to hear!!! Thank you for the very kind words.
The Marketing Director of Tim Hortons need a pay raise. 10/10
@Rocky Marciano McDonald's coffee is for people with no tastebuds.

Had that exact thought. Also the video production staff. This is a great video. Way better than the stupid Mac and Sid work at Tim's drivethru ones
@MoRiellyMoProblems, at 0 dark thirty in the morning my taste buds aren't awake yet anyways. :P

If you're ever down in the GTA you should come play shinny and grab some beers. Would be sick to play with you!
We're looking forward for the day you'll join us at the Kenyan rink, Coach Jeremy. Could do with some of your coaching.
every team-sport has that ability to bring people together, it's not a hockey exclusive :D
There's something about Football that brings people together
i just want this to be sports periods, no politics in sports!
We need a 15 minute long video! I want to see more of Nairobi!
@irenemwangi I think I have to!
Gonna add this one more time. Waiting for your coaching skills on the rink. You can explore the Nairobi National park on Wednesday morning then join us on the rink at night. The invite will keep on coming :D
I'm living there right now, it's beautiful!!
it would be nice for them to keep updating us with videos of their efforts in kenya
for sure we will, come to our group page on facebook kenya ice hockey league
I don’t understand how anyone could not like this story. It’s not about Crosby or MacKinnon. It’s about hockey. Growing this amazing sport. Well done Tim Hortons!
"When you're in the rink, nothing matters. The whole world stops."
Damn, that is incredible.
Great work Time Hortons! Great work!
KEEEEEEEEM
Since when does keem care about hockey lol
KEEM
Yo its keem wtf
Time Hortons?
I’m not crying, you’re crying.
Yep, I'm definitely crying alright
As soon as these onion cutters slide past me.....ama google Tim Hortons #newfan
Who poked my two eyes ?
weeping like a baby!
Noooo! I was just chopping onions for dinner. I hate you!
And how proud we are to have two native Nova Scotians to be a major part of this.
byron whynacht
Cole Harbour no less!
👍❤️
Mind you Sid and Nate are paid spokespersons for TH, but they'd do it for free. Awesome and humble guys!
As much as I despise Crosby, the dude is a class act and the GOAT of this generation. Natyy Mac will always be my guy as im an Avs fan
This is what it's all about. You can hate the Pens, you can laugh at the Avs. But for Crosby and MacKinnon to go out and participate in this is amazing. This is why we love Hockey. 🏒 I love seeing Hockey being played around the world, having games done in China. Seeing rinks in Africa.
Thank you, TH.
While I agree, why would you laugh at the Avs?
Amen to that, Dave. Hockey (yesss!, like soccer), unites the world. Cheers

You're from Toronto. Acting like you're going to make a difference in the mecca of hockey is laughable you dumb piece of shit.
Way to go Sid and Nate! Love the way the Kenyan player felt Sid’s face to see if he’s real! Great video! Love hockey!
Absolutely amazing. The looks of pure joy when they walked into the locker was priceless. I sometimes forget how fortunate I was to grow up playing the best sport in the world.
Canadian here, watching this from Nairobi. Amazing. When there are more Kenyan and other African players in the game it's a win for everyone.
Makes me once again believe in humanity
Two great Nova Scotians, and a group of young men who love to play Canada's game. Doesn't get much better than this.
This is amazing!! Thank you Sidney Crosby, Nathan MacKinnon and Tim Horton's for spreading Canada's game across the globe!
- Proud Canadians!
I got chills watching this. When one of the Team Kenya players was talking about how nothing else matters when you're at the rink. Things like this will always make hockey the best sport in the world!!!

I worked on this video, was very honoured to meet the team.
Im crying. I love Sid so much.
You have that in common with him ;)
Bet Malkin loves Sid more than you do, rumour has it that Malkin is first in line after every game to get sids butthole.

Amazing Tim Hortons... Im so thankful to athletes that show support in any way.
AWESOMENESS !!
This is what hockey is all about! Great job Sid, respect!
As a Canadian who lived has lived in Kenya in the past i can relate so much
I hope these guys kid's make the Olympics one day even if they just get beat huge every game it would be so awesome to see them make it there!
Class. By all involved. The Kenyan and Canadian players. Tim Horton's. And my man and favorite player from my city of Pittsburgh. Sid Crosby!
Barrack is so proud of his home country sole hockey team , Good job Tim's ,
Wow, that was amazing. I have no words.
Absolutely awesome. Great job Tim Hortons. Just awesome.
Asante sana, Tim Hortons. Thank you for doing this for my countrymen. Feels really good.
love Tim Hortons even more, thanks for bringing my home team to canada.
It was cold today , I was walking home from a hockey practice . I was going to sleep with a cold hearth and when I watched this , it warmed it . Really nice work Timhortons . Made my sleep happier .

Well done Tims, you guys never fail when it comes to promoting happiness!!! I'd love to see the Ice Lions play one day!
Lets get then a couple nice NHL proportion rinks as well! In 16-17 years, maybe we could see them send a junior team internationally. That would be really cool.

Kenya has a hockey team!
Nice work Tim Hortons.

One of the coolest things!
Is there anything better than hockey

i had a smile of my face the whole video. this is touching. Growing the best game this planet has to offer
As an Avs fan and a hater of Crosby, its awesome to see them work together. The joy you see in everyone's eyes is tear-jerking to say the least.
Im In Total Tears...and This Is Why Sid Is the Best On The Ice...Oh Captain,My Captain
Way to go TIM HORTONS, for putting something like this together!!! AMAZING!!
Pretty cool!! Way to go TH, Sid and Nate to see the look on their faces, even crying says it all!!
The only thing that would have made this even better for these guys, is if they got that little rink just absolutely loaded to the rafters with fans, or just anyone really. And let them really feel what it's like when the crowd goes wild when you score.
Well done Tim Hortons. These things are important, keep it up!
You reminded me how proud and lucky I am to be Canadian! Thank you
I love coming back to see this, wonderfully done
...who is cutting onions....tears everywhere.
this is why I love sport...
Seeing the man touch Sidney Crosby’s face made me happy inside , Tim Horton’s good idea giving these dudes in a hot climate another level of fun , I didn’t grow up with hockey living in a hot climate but I’m growing to love it
I want to buy one of their jerseys.
That would be a good way to raise funds for them.
YES!!! That would be awesome, I'd definitely buy one.

i'd buy one for sure, they look awesome. Such a wonderful story also!
Me too. I would definitely buy one.
oh man, i still love watching this. gets me every time

That was stunning in every single respect! To see Crosby in a Kenya jersey was amazing!
Great marketing by Tim Hortons!
This is beautiful. Gave me goosebumps. Hockey is for everyone ❤️
I watched this like 10 times in a row already
Love, love, love, this story. This is so special, go Kenya!
Tears and smiles...what more can I say about this amazing story!😭😀
