OMG HAHAHAHAHA, That is MEEEEEEEEE!!!!! I love you guys so freaking much. I Can't believe it!!!

So I was so unbelievably nervous, but I knew I was gonna do it during the end of the anthem. Unfortunately my best friend is also a certified dip s***, so he screwed up the video. (kept hitting the record button thinking it wasn't working.)

Hi guys. I threw one during the last verse of the national anthem (right in front of the flyers) and my buddy threw one after the first goal. Will come back with a full summary with pictures and videos as I cannot right due to me currently dying at work. LGRW

Also, I was wearing a white Red Wings, hoodie/jersey and my friend was wearing a red winter classic jersey, any idea who they showed?

the glimpse I got at the end of the game was you!!!

So???? DID YOU GET KICKED OUT? Or did you evade capture?

The perpetrators are still on the loose and believed to be repeat offenders in the future if their team were to make the playoffs.

Gotta say great throw and I liked the full follow through.

Then just standing there like "f you" Major props to you !

Hahaha, I swear I originally was just going to throw it and run, but I was just too hyped by the crowd reaction, and I kid you not a couple Flyers at the blue line looked over at me, (or just in the general direction at which it was thrown.) and I just started acting like a mad man. Almost like, "That's right! Come on! Let's GOOOOO!" I'm pretty sure I blacked out.

So???? DID YOU GET KICKED OUT? Or did you evade capture?

I didn't have an usher or security guard even say a single word to me. They tolerate the tradition as long as you respect the game. Throw it exactly at the time I did or immediately after a goal and you are fine. Don't ever disrupt the flow of the game or you're gonna get kicked out, fined, etc. Which I understand and respect.

Ushers not so respectful in Boston -- the pic, from what I can tell, shows the guy being escorted out in red...so Mr, D's buddy from the Flyers game? LOL~ Anyway, this was Boston game, and I am glad that nice juicy 'pi was part of the nasty game.

You sir are an official LGW hero. Let your actions be forever enshrined in this signature so you will be remembered as the Octopus hurler that represented LGW and the team.

HAHAHAHAHA OMG. You guys are awesome.

After searching for hours, I found a full game replay off some russian website. I had to record off my phone because I couldn't figure out how to rip the video in high quality. If anyone has the technical means to do so, I would appreciate it as it would be something I will look back on forever. This will have to suffice for now.
