Banging on the glass at the Joe illegal?

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

Okay, give me a break because I'm currently living in Germany... but I just received word from a friend that it is now illegal to bang on the glass at the Joe. Please, please tell me this is a joke. I can't find anything about it online and you guys out of all people would know. Keep me updated... thanks!

Guest Howard He Do It?!

It's not illegal in the sense that you will be arrested for doing so, but a new policy has been implemented that prohibits banging on the glass. I really don't think it is that big of a deal though.

It would have been nice if that policy was in place at Nationwide Arena during the 2009 Playoffs. s*** drove me nuts.

It really is nothing but an annoyance.

Ahhh, I don't know. I just can't imagine not banging on the glass. I've done that as a child. I mean, it's wasn't every game but when there was celebration for an epic goal or the time D-Mac came back... I never found it that annoying. Sorry if I ticked any of you guys off!

Here is a little tid bit if you break the glass you buy the glass, example if kids hockey has a game there and the glass breaks during play not a problem but if your kid hits the glass with his or her stick and it breaks and it is not an accident there parents just bought that broken pile of glass

That's not a pile of broken glass. That's E-Bay souvenirs material. Turn those lemons into lemonade.

i could care less about people that bang on the glass. maybe they should focus more on banning the people that stand up every 5 seconds and wave to the camera???? thats 10000 times more annoying IMO.

Yes, for realsies... AND the person front row reading the newspaper during the game.

Agreed. I say boycott the ban by not buying seats right on the glass. Have a ton of home games, where no on the glass seats are filled. That will change their minds about the rule pretty quick. When people go overboard with it, its annoying, but nothing that big....

Or, or maybe buy the tickets and do whatever the hell you want.

But really, maybe since I'm pretty damn weak compared to a NHL hockey player but me banging on the glass from the other side won't so anything. Nothing will break. I can't barely make a noise for a matter of fact.

I'm sure I won't get arrested but-- geez, it's hockey. COME ON. I think there's a time and a place and I can understand an annoying person but I can't understand someone who is a fan and into the game being annoying.

I know what you mean. Just another dumbass rule. I wonder exactly what will happen if you disobey,this rule..i doubt they kick you out of the game for touching the glass..

banging on the glass after a goal or big hit = okay

banging on the glass because you're stupid enough to think you can distract the players or get their attention = uhhh

Good... it's annoying as all get out. As pointed out, it serves zero purpose as the players aren't going to look at you. I hate it even more when the morons sitting in front of the glass with the ambient sound TV mics tape to them decides to bang on that glass and I get to hear a loud "bang, bang, bang" coming out of my TV set.

I also agree that the people standing up and waving at The Joe should have a potato cannon fired at their heads! Memo to these people: You look stupid. If you're that desperate to get on TV, buy a ticket on the glass... and don't bang on it!
