Pretty sad. I have been going to the games since 94 and I have not heard or seen any racism personally which doesn't necessarily means it doesn't happen, but I hope this is more isolated then common. Hopefully this is only a few people out of 8,000 fans. Whoever did this should be singled out and banned from the Scotiabank Centre.

Not surprised. Same rink my wife got heckled for wearing green and clapping for a goal at a Foreurs vs. Mooseheads game. Won't repeat what was said but definitely not something that should be yelled in public to someone you don't know. I had paid extra to get good seats off a scalper but we moved after the first period.

I've seen that guy at the bottom of Section 12. I'm really surprised he hasn't been booted out sooner than this. Always screaming at the ref, banging on the glass, odd curse word yelled (even with his own kids next to him). One of those fans who is very active in the game, but not in a good way and is detrimental to the game experience for those surrounding him.
I don't know of this specific incident but I have seen enough of others involving him. I don't think the building is likely the issue in this case as they finally had to act.

Did you read the article about what happened? He was being yelled at for being Native, not for yelling at the refs or banging on the glass. And confronted again later, where it got physical apparently.

From what I was told by a friend in Section 13, it didn't go down this way and he had literally chased down the other party as they were trying to leave the building. As with everything, there is more to the story.
