Hockey fans can’t get their head around a different culture: A thread. https://twitter.com/jetscentric/status/1287587484034109440
Just because you don’t understand a culture doesn’t mean you have to disrespect it

The homophobia is jumping out too, because apparently men dancing has to be gay, and apparently that’s a bad thing???
As more people see this, I have to say how the deep rooted racism in hockey is really driving away minority fans

I’m a Pakistani-Canadian fan in Brampton, Ontario, a city with a significantly large minority population

And it’s one (of a few) reasons why...
The sport is getting less and less popular in a lot of areas, even near the centre of the univ- even in Toronto
I’m seeing a lot of “oh these are just a few fans” and “it’s just confusion”

If you don’t see the problem here and the general problem with hockey culture I have bad news for you...
