I'd Like Some Ice Cream instead with Those Waffles!

An interesting new sports arena trend was born yesterday...waffle throwing from the stands intended for the home team.

After about the umpteenth loss by the Toronto Maple (Syrup) Leafs this season last night (December 9) at home against the Philidelphia Flyers, various home team players began to report waffles being thrown at them by fans (defectors) in the stands at the Air Canada Centre.

And these must have been the homemade variety because there are no vendors at the ACC who sell the dimpled waffle treat!

Players and the media remain puzzled why these disgruntled fans chose waffles to throw.  Many of know the tradition in Detroit around throwing raw octopus onto the ice.  However, lucky for the Leafs, the waffles were covered in syrup or blueberries or chocolate!
