First of all, woo hoo Ducks! We beat Minnesota 4-1 to advance to the Western Conference Semifinals. We're also the first team out of the West to move on.
So here's the good stuff. There was a group of 4 Minnesota Wild fans - 1 girl, 3 guys, one guy wearing a Wild jersey (I'll call him White Minnesota because he was wearing a white Minnesota jersey). White Minnesota was a complete ass during the game, turning around and telling us all that we didn't know anything about hockey. That's right, the mere fact that I live in California is enough to convince anyone to think that we know nothing about hockey. Whatever.
I ended up getting into it with White Minnesota, as did a lot of other people, because I absolutely hate it when people are so rude and nasty like that. At one point during the second period, Minnesota scored to tie the game, and White Minnesota would not sit down after he got up to clap. He was blocking peoples' views, and despite the numerous requests from everyone, he still wouldn't sit down. He just stood there and clapped.
At one point, this guy sitting in front of us (I will refer to him as Green Duck, because he was wearing a green jacket and was cheering for the Ducks) grabbed the guy's hat and put it on his own head. For what reason, I have no clue. When he tossed the hat back to the guy, his friend (I'll call him Black Minnesota, because he was wearing a black shirt, you get the idea) started saying "Did you just take his hat?" over and over again. At that point, Black Minnesota grabbed Green Duck, and when that happened, Green Duck's friend, Black Duck, jumped over the row he was in and launched himself at Black Minnesota. I think that at this point, Green Duck also went after White Minnesota. They all ended up falling on the row in front of them, and one guy sitting in the stands hurt his neck and shoulder.
Eventually, a couple of people from the section next to ours came over and held back White Minnesota and I think they held back Black Minnesota too. It seemed to take forever for the security guards to get there, but once they got there, we all pointed to White Minnesota to let them know that he was the one who started all the trouble. Then they took the two Minnesota fans to talk to them. The guards came back up a few minutes later to get the Ducks fans too. The Minnesota fans ended up getting kicked out of the arena, and they let the Ducks fans stay, which surprised the hell out of me.
It took a while for everything to calm down, and then we all kind of realized that there was a hockey game going on in front of us, so we sat down and enjoyed it after that. But damn, what a crazy night. Fun times!
