FIGHTING HOCKEY MOM HIT WITH A COWBELL

A fight between two hockey moms at a northern Ontario minor league hockey game escalated from a verbal fight to an assault with a cowbell. It happened at the Labbé Arena in Sturgeon Falls during a game between the Markstay-Warren Wolves and Don’s Butcher Shop West Nipissing Stings. One of the Stings’ moms, notorious for starting verbal altercations during her children’s hockey games, started carping about how it took the Wolves four years to finally beat them. Asked repeatedly to quiet down and leave them alone, the woman kept at it. Eventually, one of the Wolves’ moms hit the woman with a cowbell. That mom was charged with assault. The Wolves won 5-1.
* It was the rare case where you need less cowbell.
* It’s supposed to be a PERCUSSION instrument, not a CONCUSSION instrument.
* Coulda been worse. Coulda been a marimba.
* Moms, moms —- let’s leave the fights to the kids on the ice, okay?
* The West Nipissing Stings – I’m envisioning a bunch of skinny blonde-haired kids with bass guitars for hockey sticks.
