Would you sue? Could you sue? Why did they eject the fan? Could you sue for that? Would you sue for that? Or would you just piss your pants?

I wouldn't sue either but I would like tickets for the rest of the year along with some free adult beverages
Surely all you'd get was money back from the ticket you 'lost'?mtb0minime wrote:
I'd sue for getting kicked out when I shouldn't have been.
Hell yeah! Maybe I could get some pain & suffering damages in there. The players and stadium are making millions. I've gotta stake a claim in that.PrivateVendetta wrote:

On October 19, 2010, in a game against the Minnesota Wild at the Xcel Energy Center, Rypien pushed a linesman, and while heading down the tunnel, he reached into the stands and grabbed a fan by the chest, who had been clapping and yelled out "way to be professional". After grabbing the fan Rypien started to pull him into the tunnel before being restrained by his coach and teammates. Rypien was suspended indefinitely pending an in person disciplinary hearing about the altercation. As a result of the in person meeting the NHL suspended Rypien for six games and fined the Canucks $25,000. Following the suspension hearing NHL Commissioner, Gary Bettman, call the fan to apologize and offered him dinner and tickets to another game. After which the fan stated that, although he has not yet hired a lawyer, he will be "definitely seeking legal representation" further adding that "I was assaulted, that's just the bottom line."
And fuck Rypien. Yeah, he's a badass, but you have to be more than a 1 dimensional fighter in this day and age. The era of the quintessential fighter/goon at the NHL level is coming to an end.-CARNIFEX-[LOC] wrote:

Which is why most of the entertainment value does not lie in intermission fighting. Most of it is in the plays, the teamwork, and the goals, and the hits. The fights are just a small part.Uzique wrote:

No I understand there's a lot of fighting, but it's not a huge integral [part of the game, just a stress relieverUzique wrote:
you're fucking insane to try and defend hockey on the fighting
wrestling has less fighting in it than hockey
that wasnt intermissionUzique wrote:
