\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Every year the team has a "School Day" game where children are bused in from school on a schoolday for an 11:00 a.m. gameday start. This year's game was with Worcester. And now some parents and school administrators are worried about this because - gasp - FIGHTING takes place at hockey games! http://www.pressherald.com/news/ice-hockey-fights-mar-field-trip-for-some_2011-03-24.html
ExiledInIllinois Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 I should ask my son if there were any fights... He went on a field trip to see the Chicago Wolves play the Texas Stars during school hours. Even if there are any fights, what is the big deal? Oh... Forgot to mention... This must be a "Maine" thing? :rolleyes:

Guest three3 Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 agreed. let boxers/mma do the fighting. i want to see a SPORT. if i want to see guys beat the hell out of each other there are avenues for that off of the ice. and the argument that guys will use their sticks to do worse damage if fighting is banned? fine, let them, then send them straight to court and after that, jail. grow up.
KD in CA Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 Good grief. More hysterical parents that think they can sanitize the world for their children. My guess is that none of the kids with non-hyper parents were 'traumatized' by seeing a few seconds of fighting.

It is more of a learning lesson to watch the antics going on (with in reason of course).

LeviF Posted March 25, 2011 Posted March 25, 2011 People who love hockey could care less if you think its a gimmick sport. Could they? Why don't they care less, then?
