"Fuck Him Up," Spectators Cheer As Two High School Hockey Teams Brawl

Philadelphia-area high schools Central Bucks West and Ridley met last night in the Class 2A quarterfinal of the Flyers Cup, a high school tournament put on by the Flyers every year. Central Bucks West was up 7-1 in the third period when the game was called, on account of an out-of-control brawl involving most of the players on both teams and even a pair of spectators.

only thing missing from the video is a rousing shout of "Worldstar!!!"


pure gold from the comments:

“The courting ritual has occurred every Spring since the dawn of time. Observe as the defeated males make one last effort to assert their worthiness by engaging in violence with their rivals. Note the beautiful high-pitched mating call of the sexually active females in the background. Meanwhile, the parents of these youths join the fray attempt in a futile attempt to display their child-rearing ability.”

After 3 days of a free NFL draft with no police issues, Philadelphia finally has a sports-related arrest:

Ex-76er, college coach charged with exposing himself in Lower Merion

FYI: not that it raises the creepy-factor, but this is a high-SES suburb

It's no wonder they got so many responses so fast: At least around here, their prices would be substantially below market. My sons started a similar business (called "Monkey Business" fwiw) when they were in middle school and i think their prices were higher back then (let's call it 15 yrs in round numbers). OTOH, they're tapping a very promising market: The number of people looking for "kids looking to make some bucks" shoveling apparently far exceeds the number of kids looking to make some bucks, at least around here.

Vikings games are basically a human zoo, and that's in polite howdy dontchano Minnesota.

I can only imagine what it turns into in a place that prides itself on being as hostile to visitors as possible.

I would also love to observe it.
