Not an AU, but have Hockey Night in Atlantis (http://wraithbait.com/viewstory.php?sid=2991) by [livejournal.com profile] canadian_snoopy. Not a rec, exactly, but it isn't bad, it's just not what appeals to me. Entertaining, though:
"I happen to think it's a great idea," she told him later, making Rodney swallow the words he'd been ready to use to convince her. All of the East European members (and more than a few Canadians and Americans) had laid siege to his lab until he'd assured them that yes, he would do his best to convince Elizabeth that a hockey game was just the thing they needed.

Granted, they'd hounded him for hours before he'd caved but Rodney still felt oddly vindicated that he'd held out *that* long under the combined might of Zelenka, Corrigan and Petrova.

He had made a list of things to say to Elizabeth that ranged from begging (Petrova intimidated *Marines*, so Rodney wasn't ashamed of his desire to keep her in a good mood) to explaining the necessity of building camaraderie between the military and the scientists (Zelenka's idea, despite the fact that most of Sheppard's Marines thought the sun shone out of Zelenka's ass) to threats to go on a labour strike (an empty threat, considering that most of his people worked twenty hour days because they *wanted* to).

Mentally chucking the list, he frowned at Elizabeth's smile: this was too easy and he didn't trust easy anymore than he trusted Sheppard to not get lost inside a closet. "You do?" he asked warily.

She nodded, smiling more broadly. "I think it's just what we need, something fun and relaxing for everyone to do."

Rodney blinked. "You've never actually watched a hockey game, have you?"
