we had a men's hockey game a number of years ago where there was a wife that was cheering for our opposition in the stands and she was just going on and on and on.
eventually the ref had enough so he waited until 'her team' had a scoring chance and blew the play dead. then loud enough so you could hear it on the next rink belted out while pointing at her, "YOU! GET OUT NOW!"
she starts yelling back at him so he skates towards the other team's bench and belts out, "who wants to claim her?!?! she's got 30 seconds to be gone or you're getting a penalty!"
her husband jumped up and ran towards the stands yelling at her to shut up and leave
it was one of the funniest things to see... but also pretty pathetic that she got so worked up about a men's beer league game. the thing is, win or lose it doesn't matter... everyone makes the playoffs! ha!
