Wild fight breaks out among fans during Edmonton Oilers watch party
Outdoor playoff viewing events have become a tradition in the NHL lately, offering fans a chance to catch the action on a big screen outside the arena, creating a unique and fun atmosphere. However, as always, there are some who can't resist causing trouble.
Last night, the Edmonton Oilers clashed with the Los Angeles Kings in game one of their Western Conference playoff series. This marks the third consecutive year these teams have squared off in the first round, with the Oilers emerging victorious in the previous two encounters. Last night, they took a 1-0 series lead.
But amid the excitement, emotions ran high among Oilers fans at the outdoor viewing party outside Rogers Arena. A video shared by YEG Wave captured a scuffle breaking out among several individuals.
Unfortunately, this isn't the first time such incidents have marred the fan experience. Last year, there were even threats to shut down the outdoor viewing area during the playoffs due to similar behavior. Let's hope fans can keep their cool moving forward, ensuring everyone can enjoy the games without any disruptions.
