I'm not in this 35 year old range, much younger. But I love it, I think it adds to the ENTERTAINMENT of the game...and let's face it, it is a professional sport but it is supposed to be entertaining for fans as well.

And you know what, if you are a defensive player that get's mocked by the dances, then you should try 5 times harder to not let them beat you on the next play. If you feel you need to respond to that kinda of "taunting" with violence, then you have the mind set of a 2 year old and don't belong in sports.

Banning the celelbrations, IMO, take away the signinficance of them. Imagine going to the dome for a Flames game and not seeing the Flame go on when we score a goal. Or any of the celebrations....that should be seen as the same thing really.
