Proposal for burgers on the ice

[Do Make Say Think]

The team just ought to make announcements during TV timeouts on the matter if they think this is going to be an issue going forward

I'm also very much in favour of selling plastic ones with proceeds going to a charity (or colon cancer research as a nod to Murray could be a nice gesture?)

People should keep the burgers in their wrappers when they throw them.

If people wanna throw burgers let them throw burgers. Scold them over the PA if need be, but geeze let people have some fun for once.

I going to the Detroit game the end of March. I'm sneaking in as many burgers as I can.

I live near windsor and I am looking for tickets to that game

Yeah you could leave that burger on the ice for several years and the burger wouldnt have even degraded at all. Actually the fake plastic burger will probably degrade faster.

mcdonalds fries will last forever. Saw a video online about a guy who put them in a mason jar for nearly a year and they looked pristine, just a little dusty. lol

Let me know if you go. I'm going lower bowl and none of my buddies want to pay for the tickets of those seats.

It's too bad that's a Tuesday game. Weekend I'd actually consider going for it.

This. Hearing the announcer tell fans to stop littering the ice yesterday was annoying. Florida had the plastic rats in the 96 cup run, let Ottawa have the hamburgers.

The thing is it was kind of unsafe in a way because I realized when the people i was unassociated with were throwing them from the 300's not all of them were making it to the ice, so they may or may not have got people in the 100's.

For the last time...

The franchise is TOTALLY cool with people throwing burgers AFTER THE GAME. During play, the NHL (THE LEAGUE) has mandated that throwing things on the ice DURING the game can result in a delay of game penalty. Few refs call it because, usually, it consists of one octopus hitting the ice, or one catfish, but if the ice gets littered by burgers, that stops the game and requires time to clean up. An annoyed ref has the right to give a penalty. The last thing we need is for the Sens to score with a minute left to take the lead, have a crap ton of burgers fly on the ice, then have some overzealous official award the other team a 2 minute PP to end the game.

I doubt Stuntman Stu really gave a flying **** about the rule when he announced it, but he HAD to announce it due to league policy.

I laughed when reading picturing it and I sit 100 pretty often xD
