Driver's damn lucky the whole thing didn't go over on him...or throw him out on his head...he bounced pretty good when it hit the ground.

Oof! That must be an expensive repair...will be interesting to see if the honda boni shows up on the ice New Year's day...will get a good chuckle out of it if it's not there.

I just realized something...

ZAMBONIS DON'T HAVE BRAKES!!!!

It's a transbrake...you step on the gas and it goes. You let off the gas and you stop. Olympias, on the other hand, do. So...basically...human error.

Obviously this is the excuse that the NHL is using because most people don't know that.

Probably hired a standard towing company to bring it from the Hawks arena. 3/4 of the truckers for hire speak less English than needed to navigate highways.

Electric zams have brakes and since there is no propane tank its a electric. Great picture for a background on the computer here and work.

Yep, realized that yesterday. I was told the electric ones do indeed have brakes.

In that case then...suggesting the error is with the person 18" from the steering wheel?

The way he got jerked back & forth his lower back and neck must feel awesome.

That would be freakin awesome to go to an outdoor hockey game! The only drawback that i can think, is that you aren't as close to the ice as you are if you were in an arena, but still. awesome. I would deal with the cold just to be at one of these games!

and chikinpotpie report back to us and tell us what the atmosphere and everything was like please =)

As much as seeing the game is important...I think the event & atmosphere itself is more of a draw than the sight lines to the game...
