Even having golf star Brooks Koepka bang the Florida Panthers’ massive drum behind their net to rally the crowd didn’t help in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup.

Las Vegas scored less than two minutes into the game and never trailed. Still, our trip to Fort Lauderdale was fun. Among the highlights:

— Our spacious suite at the Atlantic Hotel & Spa meant we were able to stay in comfort. Though the air conditioning was not working in the living room our first night, a technician spent hours putting in a new motor. We were able to use the pool after checking out, a big advantage considering our late-afternoon flight. I tossed the football up in the air in a contest to see which one of my sons would be the first to catch 10.
— For dinner, Steak 954 provided excellent filet mignon — the best my 15-year-old son has ever had — and tasty bernaise sauce. Brunch was superb too; I’d recommend an egg-white omelet with hot sauce on the side and an order of bacon.
