Northern Wish Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 So the fucking Leafs finally has a fan that is sick of their shit, so they ban him.A lifetime ban from all MLSE events!So my question is- if it EVER happens that a Leaf scores a hat trick on home ice; will they ban all fans who toss a hat onto the surface?Of course not, but whats the difference? I can't think of one waffle related long disability claim in the history of the sport.Frustrated fan pays price for waffle-throwingThe Canadian Press TORONTO - A 31-year-old man charged with mischief after throwing waffles on the ice at a Maple Leafs game says he did it out of frustration.Joseph Robb of Oakville, Ont., says "I'm just a normal Leafs fan, I love them to death."His love affair will be from a distance, however. He's been barred from the Air Canada Centre, as well as other Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment events at BMO Field and Ricoh Coliseum.MLSE vice-president Bob Hunter says Robb's actions Monday night were inappropriate.He says MLSE bars a dozen to two dozen fans a year due to misbehaviour.The 12-17-4 Leafs currently stand 28th in the NHL.

AD Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Was it really a lifetime ban? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakis Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 That is just wrong. How would they even know if he came to a game? Would they tell every ticket taker what he looks like, lol. I guess the one difference is that he threw it while the play was still going on and not after a goal had been scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanada Kev Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 I'm telling ya, MLSE opened up a can of worms in this futile season by banning this dude.Damn, if he had been throwing cans of soup on the ice that could potentially hurt a player or fan I could understand. But a waffle?What's next ... getting banned for BOOOOing?This is going to haunt them all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamilton Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 The difference is that the guy who chucked the waffles did so while the play was still happening, I believe. The hat throwing at least happens after the play is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorgnor Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 I think I can see the guy's point. The waffling happens during the play of the game, why not the waffles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Wish Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Was it really a lifetime ban?No sorry it was not- it has been deemed an "indefinite" ban from all events.I'm sure they'll change their tune.The Wings have had guys tossing octopus on the ice for decades and I've never heard of something this stupid.All the Leaf fans with $20,000 season tickets should waffle the shit out of the ice at the final home game and see what MLSE does about that.....
