Is a hockey mullet and banging glass cool?
Really what does banging on glass accomplish? Just a follow-up from my last question.
I just bought Wen shampoo off of an ad next to my last hockey question. I want Brian Engblom hair. Can I achieve this perfection?
Thanks for all the awesome answers. Got to get up in 5 hours for Chattanooga. For real...take care all.

Banging on the glass accomplishes nothing, although I suppose if you are an overweight fan, the expended energy might help you lose wight.
Getting Engblom hair requires going out into the woods and killing an animal...most likely a raccopon or a red squirrel and using the dried pelt as a wig!
I'm not sure they have raccoons or squirrels in Tampa, I think they all live around my ex-wife's place in the Orlando area!

You know how you go to the doctors office, or Sea World, and they have the sign that says "Don't Tap the Glass" on an aquarium, and yet some dumbass always does? Well it is the same thing with banging on the glass at a hockey game. Eventually the players will get scared away from that area of the rink and go hide under the treasure castle.
As for the pride of Winnipeg, it's not fair, what good is having a team back in town if Engblom gets all the women? I'm currently growing my hair out in an attempt to get the look myself, I wish you all the luck in the world.

Lotsa long answers eh! Not here. Banging on the glass is annoying, and Brian Engblom looks like a goof.

Brian Engblom is a dead ringer for Andy Travis from "WKRP in Cincinnati" back when he rocked the flow.
All you need to complete the look is a red satin baseball jacket, some disturbingly tight jeans, and good to go.
Banging on the glass is the next step in the evolutionary scale after you spend 10 minutes waving to your imaginary friends on your cellphone while using the term "bro" at least 147 times in that 10-minute conversation.

It's more or less just to make noise and to piss off the other team. I don't think it pisses them off, LOL. Us stupid fans think it does. But it does achieve making noise, LOL.
I sported the mullet for years. of course it was never called a mullet back then. You would walk into the hair salon and you'd say "just leave it long in the back". It was very popular in the late 80's and early 90's. It was the "metal cut". You were basically pledging your love for Guns N' Roses, Motley Crue, Poison, and Skid Row by doing this. Fashions and styles change of course. Just like in the mid 90's when everyone was doing the penis cut (mushroom cut). parting their hair in the middle and shaving the underneath.
Hockey was filled with "mullets". Jagr and Klima come to my mind the most. Go to this website and scroll to the bottom and you'll see Klima's mullet:

Banging glass is annoying. Knock it off. I actually have to turn off Sabers home games because of all the idiots that do it constantly.
It annoys people, the fans sitting next to you, the fans at home. But I am guessing that the players don't even notice.
BTW: I like the comparison to the idiots waving to their friends. Don't forget the ones who stand up and turn around every time the puck is in front of them. Hey, look at me! I spent a lot of money to go to a game but I'm not watching it!

It's exciting when you are at the game, under the lights, maybe with a few beers in you, it's fun to bang on the glass, although it doesn't accomplish anything. And then you sit at home and watch the game and think of what idiots they look like.

i do no longer understand who Kenny Powers is, yet i assume he refuses to maintain on with contemporary tastes in trend and each thing else. He travels to the beat of a diverse drum. i do no longer even understand what teen boys like RE: regular and favorite hairstyles.
