[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1048577, member: 18006"] I never understood how anyone could go to a Hawks game at the "Madhouse on Madison" and not go completely deaf from that damned [I]horn[/I]. The biggest reason that stadium was the loudest arena in the history of the NHL. A marine horn designed for oceangoing vessels up to 250 feet in length. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1732232180360.png"]20963[/ATTACH] The rivalry back in the 80s between the North Stars and the Hawks was almost legendary... the brawls, especially between Al MacInnis and Al Secord... when the games were in Minnesota, the entire Met Center would shake from 17,000 people bellowing "Secord sucks... Secord sucks"... blood all over the ice... If you're sure it was the last seaason, then that rules out the Christmas 1989 pre-game brawl with the North Stars.
