Hockey fans, at least at the games I've been to, have typically been, shall we say, somewhat unrefined in their appearance. Like the guy in the picture. Not that there's anything wrong with that. DC could use a few more mullet wearing, nonpreppy rednecks. Why don't you move on down here?
so how many cities have you seen hockey games in??? Because, as far as the NHL goes, i have seen games in DC, Philly, Pittsburgh, Boston, New York(MSG), Phoenix, Detroit, Chicago, Toronto and Montreal as well as countless college, junior and other hockey games/events, and i can say the mullet wearing redneck contingency is much higher in DC than in most of those other cities (perhaps Chicago is pretty close though).
also, i have been to many NBA and MLB games and the fans there are no prizes. just as many fat asses at the Nationals game as there are at MCI center!
