Calgary Gym Teacher Thrown Out Of Jobing.com Arena
Midway through the third period of the Coyotes vs Blackhawks game, a water bottle was thrown onto the ice by a Blackhawks fan upset that his team was losing. The fan was escorted out of the rink by security. It turns out this was a High School Gym teacher from Calgary. It has significance to me because he is my gym teacher. Maybe this is not a big deal, but I found it pretty funny as I too was at the game and saw it myself. Take this for what it is, a funny coincidence, and not as a major story.
I will not name names or give out any information as to where he works, as it would be rude and I don't want to embarrass him further, it's just meant to be a funny and ironic story.
UPDATE: Information in this thread is false, and was given to me falsely.
Wow. What a dumbass. Throwing trash on the ice, and he's supposed to be teaching kids about athletics and sportsmanship?
Unless he's from Vancouver, this is totally unacceptable.

I thought he had got a defective tv. The technology was in its infancy. It took a long time to figure that one out."

Totally true but they aren't paid very well to start off. My mom makes 6 figures but she's been a teacher for over 25 years.
Fair enough, but deep 5 figures isnt anything to complain about either. They actually get paid a decent market rate (38-45) to start. If they can find full time work.
They also have the Pope's job security. They practically have to die to lose their jobs.

Oh I am not saying it is a bad thing. I just feel teachers are undervalued and they should be making more for what they do/have to put up with. I'd love to be a teacher if only to have the time off in the summer.
Probably didn't like the blown too-many-men-on-the-ice call.
