We’ve all been there. Either in the stands watching our friends or siblings play or on the ice with our parents watching. Something happens, either you are on the wrong side of a two-hander or you get slashed while you have the puck covered and you hear a familiar scream or yell on the other side of the glass. It’s your parents going crazy because the referees didn’t call a penalty you drew.
The dad was so mad over his daughter getting taken down that he used bad language and slammed his left hand against the glass so hard that it shattered it. The manager of the rink said that his wedding ring is what shattered the glass and the ring broke too. A family friend of Paul said his ring was made of Carbide and the hardness of the metal caused it to shatter the glass. The man has been banned from the arena and has to pay to replace the pane of glass in addition to his wedding ring.
The man is now banned from watching his kid play hockey and had to pay to replace the glass and his wedding ring because he was angry over the refs call? I hope he’s learned his lesson. This incident occurred just in Vancouver is considering banning spectators because of persistent harassment of referees. Mind you these kids who referee youth hockey games are as young as 15/16 years old trying to make a few bucks to save money for a new car or a new hockey stick. I’ve seen many abusive parents.SHoulnt matter if you boo or mad with a call, But to cause a stoppage of play like shattering the glass is just cause to get banned from a rink because he’s not mature enough to keep his emotions in check.
