Canadian Junior Hockey Players Brawl For Extremely Canadian Reason

http://deadspin.com/canadian-junior-hockey-players-brawl-for-extremely-cana-1766888579

Here we have two junior hockey teams—the Flin Flon Bombers in white, and the Weyburn Red Wings in red—getting into a postgame brawl because one of the Red Wings players tried to make off with a severed moose leg that was tossed onto the ice by Bombers fans. A moose leg!

Hucking a moose leg onto the ice is, for some reason, a tradition of sorts for Bombers fans. Get it together, Canada.


Of course, over in Saskatchewan, they'd throw a Moose Jaw instead of a leg.

Here in Saskatchewan we have bench brawls for ................ um, no reason at all! We don't need no friggin' moose jaw (although it is a very nice little city).
