crotty99 302 Report post Posted April 23, 2010 http://www.dailytribune.com/articles/2010/04/22/sports/srv0000008103150.txt Didnt see this one on here. If you don't want to read the whole thing, basically a wings fan went to jail for throwing the pi on the ice. Another group of wings fans got together to bail him out. Two points: 1) Wings fans are the best. 2) Was it really necessary to take the poor guy to jail?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seraph 240 Report post Posted April 23, 2010 The only cool part was the fact that the fans actually raised $500 that fast. I'm actually not a huge supporter of throwing octopi at away games. I feel you should respect your enemies turf a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do we know the circumstances of why he was arrested? Was he drunk and belligerent? Did he crash into fans before during or after throwing the 'pi? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It says "disorderly conduct, more specifically the throwing of prohibited bottles or other objects." Disorderly conduct is such BS to begin with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
legaleaglewingsfan 75 Report post Posted April 23, 2010 Given the size of Red Wings Nation I am sure there is an attorney down there that will be willing to represent him if he so desires. Hell it would be hilarious if he requested a jury and there were enough Wings fans to if not acquit then to at least hang the jury. I can only imagine that voire dire. And who here is a Wings fan, Coyotes fan, hockey fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joseph Franks 17 Report post Posted April 25, 2010 People in Phoenix have probably never even seen an Octopus. They probably assumed it was an alien, and arrested him for assisting in the invasion of earth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
