| todays game in dayton has been calcelled due to unsafe ice conditions....i.e. broken zamboni. i hear toledo has a zamboni thats not being used. |
What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
ZINGER!!!!! |

Turned out to be a blessing in disguise for me as I was going to be late and decided not to go just about 20 minutes before I got calls that the game was postponed.
Sounds like Dayton really handled it "well" with the fans ... |

| They offered to sent you a check in the mail or you can exchange your ticket for another game later this season. |

| Dayton's front office is a freaking JOKE. They told us that they were unable to give us cash refunds, but that we could use our ticket to any other regular season game or they would mail us a check. First of all, the check would have probably bounced, second of all how can you tell me you can't give me cash when I just handed you CASH for my ticket a half hour before that? Banks aren't open at this hour on a Sunday so I know they didn't run the cash to the bank. Talk about Cincinnati folding and not having money! We have a zam that works thank you! And the crappiest part about it was that our PLAYERS, COACHES, and the ZEBRAS were out of the city before they even told their fans that it was for sure cancelled. They wanted to continue getting money for the 50/50, chuck-a-puck, and concessions I guess. |

| Just another black eye for that $hithole arena. Bad boards, terrible ice, broken zamboni, whats next? Whats the deal with the zamboni. Nobody in Dayton knows how to repair one or what? I better get my money back or at least use the same ticket for the rescheduled game. |
GO HABS GO!!! |

Yea, nice of them to lie to the fans just so they can drain whatever money they can get from the 500 fans that were there. They must think we're all dumb to say they're "waiting to see what they can do about the zamboni" when most of the fans could see the players and referees leaving. |

Yeah-I think when the equipment manager gathered the sticks up and carried them off the ice, that might have been a clue. I found out when I went out to get a wrist band for beer, and the wrist band lady said she couldn't give me one because she had just finished packing her stuff up. I think all the fans were a bit miffed---all 500 of them that is. |

Yeah, seeing the equipment being carried away, plus Weber gathering the boys and heading out... zebras following... was a CLEAR clue that the game wasn't happening. It's sad on two ends, one that the fans stuck around, oblivious to what was going on, and also that they have THAT much faith in their team to believe them that there was still a shot that the game would be taking place tonight. Kinda goes along with the whole, ice water in hell scenario. |

| what's really hilarious is that if it was so obvious, why did you stick around and watch all of it. If it's that obvious, why not leave? Plus the cash that was handed over for the ticket, was that to the box office or the Bummers ofice. If the box office, it's two seperate entities and the Bummers may not have had the cash on hand to refund. |

Good comeback. Couldn't think of any excuses to cover the joke squad and you can't change peoples posts on this board, eh? Such a sad, sad, world. |

| I did leave, genius. As soon as I saw them walking out. Well, I didn't LEAVE, I went to the office to wait in line to listen to their BS. |

I'm sure you would have received a much better answer at US Bank Arena, eh? |

| Let's be logical. You think Dayton fans wouldn't be complaining if this happened at USBA? Give me a break. |
