Indiana Ice Hockey Super-Fan on the right. His Wing-Man in the dark glasses on the left.

As an occasional hockey-game attender, I grew up with the Ft. Wayne Komets in Ft. Wayne at the Memorial Colleseum. Hoping to find a similar friday-night-activity now that I live in Indy, I attended the Ice-Gamblers game. It was a complete shut-out with ice taking the game at 5-1 with a decent Hat trick in the 3rd period. However the facilites were crap. The Parking was Hell. The Fights were staged. There were probably only two good checks. The puck was all over the place with neither team ever really having it in control. At a Komets game, the facilities are great, the parking is quick and easy (even though there are way more people in attendance) the fights are stemmed from actual anger and end with someone truly hurting, a solid body check is around every turn, and the puck always seems to be going where they want it! I WILL NEVER ATTEND ANOTHER ICE GAME! For that matter, I will probably never attend anything at the Pepsi coliseum again! The highlight of the night was a Super Fan that I heard hasn't missed a home game in five seasons. He had the audience wrapped around his little finger. Looking like John Candy from Planes Trains, and Automobiles, He was shouting things like "HOCKEY" and the crowd immediately responded with "HOOOOCCCKKKEEEYYY" Pretty entertaining! He also mocked the people in the penalty boxes to no end to everyone's enjoyment! And verbally abused the sub-par, mediocre refferees! All-In-All it was an experience that left me disappointed and frustrated. DON'T GO TO ICE GAMES!
