Bring the Gnome to the Dome! TONIGHT!
This a re-post from the GDT thread. Bring the garden gnomes to the game. Cameras will quickly get a whiff of what's happening and start showing them on the Jumbotron. Gnomes have no nationality or team allegiances. They don't belong to Nashville exclusively and can be called on interchangeably, when needed. Let's do it! It would be absolutely hilarious if Perry freaks out again.
Quote:
On opening night I was blessed with the opportunity to have the bench seats. During this time, we had purchased a garden gnome and set it facing the Anaheim bench. Now, as you can imagine it certainly got looks. Corry Perry in particular couldn't take his eyes off the garden gnome. Might I suggest we invest in a garden gnome or two and set them up in the bench seats so that the gnome can continue to haunt Mr. Corry "cheapshot" Perry?
This is the what transpired in the box...
Perry got so creeped out that when he got back to the bench, he took one look at the gnome and he slammed the door as hard as he could to try to knock the gnome off and then when that didn't work, he refused to sit there again for the entire game. He literally motioned for someone else on his line to sit there instead of him.
Predators fans re-doubled the gnome effort, creating posters to disrupt Perry's pre-game skate:

Perry was held pointless in Game 6 in Nashville and, as they say, "the rest is history."

There is a real gnome they show celebrating after every goal in ANA. Pointing his fingers like pistols.

Posted on FB for people to bring Gnomes to the game if they're going. My buddy, who unfortunately lives in Kelowna, posted a picture of his! He says "print and share".

If Perry is afraid of gnomes can you imagine clown gnomes?
He'd be having nightmares.

It'd be even better if every time Perry looked behind him, there was another one placed there. That would definitely screw with his head.

Someone, please bring it early before the warm-up, so that Perry can see it when he does his jinxing routine!

I presume that the idea is that one should launch a Gnome at Perry's head as a makeshift missile?
