DONALD TRUMP HILLARY CLINTON

Fans and players alike say fist-to-cuffs are essential to the game of hockey, although there is a considerable effort to eliminate fighting from the game.
On Oct. 28, there may be more fist-to-cuffs in the stands than on the ice when the first 2,500 Rockford Ice Hog fans have the opportunity to choose a Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton bobblehead.
But, there'll be no debate.
Which ever one runs out first will be declared the winner.
The Ice Hogs, an affiliate of the Chicago Blackhwaks since 2007, play in the American Hockey League and sport an average attendance of 5,000 per game.
Last season's attendance was recorded at 190,492, and featured 11 sellouts. There are 38 home games.
Since affiliating with the Blackhawks, 22 Ice Hog players have been a vital part of at least one of the three Stanley Cup Championship teams, playing during the 2010, 2013, and 2015 seasons.

Notable players include:
Corey Crawford: Goalie 2013 and 2015
Niklas Hjarlmarsson: Defenseman 2010, 2013, and 2015.
Brandon Saad: Left Wing 2013 and 2015
Andrew Shaw: Right Wing 2013 and 2015
Dustin Byfuglien: Defenseman/Right Wing 2010
Bryan Bickell: Left Wing 2013 and 2015
Marcus Kruger: Center 2013 and 2015
Antti Niemi: Goalie 2010

Rockford, Illinois, is located 90 miles northwest of Chicago. The Ice Hogs play in the BMO Harris Bank Center. The team conducts an annual game-worn jersey auction, which, to date, has raised $890,000 for local charities. 
In June, the team signed a 5-year extension, securing their affiliation with the Chicago Blackhawks through the 2021-22 season. Rockford is my hometown and my current place of residence.

I've been fortunate to have received free tickets for years, thanks to a former boss who recently retired from working in business development for the local Pepsi-Cola distributor. I guess I'll have to shell out some coin from now on. John White, MBA He usually got me entrance to the "lounge," which is located right behind the glass behind one of the nets. Everything was complimentary. To impress a date, he set me up with seats behind the Ice Hog bench. That's how buddies operate.

Randy Keho: We love minor league hockey. We have the Colorado Eagles here in Northern Colorado. I'd be curious to hear how it turns out. Not only the vote total for POTUS but about any colorful commentary from fans. I'd for one love to sit up in the stands with you and drink beer and take it all in!
