1. Season-tickets to the local football team are cheaper than one ticket to a hockey game. Against the panthers.

These guys should have been in Canada:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danbury_Trashers.
The Danbury Trashers were founded as an expansion team in the United Hockey League (UHL) on April 1, 2004 by James Galante, a garbage disposal mogul, who paid a $500,000 franchise fee to the league.[1][2] Galante had considered investing in the New Haven Knights prior to the franchise folding.[3] He purchased the franchising rights after seeing the enthusiasm for hockey in Danbury at his son A. J.'s high school games. He also wanted to give A. J. experience in how to manage a professional sports franchise, naming him president and General Manager.[1][3] A. J. was a 17 year old high school student at the time and according to UHL commissioner Richard Brosal some around the league thought it was an April Fools' Day joke. After graduating high school Galante attended Manhattanville College while maintaining his organizational duties.[1]

The new team was named the Trashers, a reference to the elder Galante's main business,[2] with the logo being designed by A. J.'s friends.

In a game against the Kalamazoo Wings on December 1, Wingfield attempted to instigate a fight after an altercation with a Wings' player. The player refused to fight, but as Wingfield skated away the player grabbed Wingfield's jersey and pulled him back over an outstretched leg. Wingfield's skate caught on the ice as he fell backwards breaking his ankle. The play incited a brawl, where Ndur fought with two players, attempted to kick a linesman, and charged the Wings bench, before the officials were able to subdue him.[2] His actions led to a 20 game suspension by the league, while the Kalamazoo player received 5 games.[9] Upset with the officiating James Galante went down to ice level to voice his opinion. Galante entered the ice via the penalty box where he got into a shouting match with a linesman and allegedly punched him.[2][10] For his actions Galante was charged with misdemeanor assault and fined by the UHL for leaving the owner's box. The UHL stated that because of the disturbances on the ice they could not determine what actually happened. The linesman was suspended for five games for his part in the altercation.[10] He later asked that the assault charges against Galante be dropped. After this request prosecutors still intended to pursue the charges, but eventually dropped them citing lack of evidence.[2][9] After the brawl the Trashers went 8–2–0 in their next 10 games.[6] A second brawl occurred months later in a game versus the Adirondack Frostbite. At the end of the brawl, the Trashers' Chad Wagner was being removed from the ice by the linesmen when he broke away, and attacked the Adirondack bench, grabbing their head coach. Compounding the issue two other Trashers' players left the penalty box and skated towards the bench. A third player sucker punched an opponent, breaking his nose. For his part in the brawl, Wagner was banned from the UHL while the two players, who left the penalty box, received 5 and 10 game suspensions respectively, and the third player was suspended for the remainder of the season and playoffs. Head coach Stirling was also suspended three games for not being able to control his players. It was the sixteenth time the league had suspended a Trashers player
