It has been 32 years since a Canadian hockey team won an NHL Championship. Boston Pizza wants them to bring the Stanley Cup up north before the tariffs kick in. Actually, they want their ice men to win!
So the pizza joint is releasing an air freshener to manifest a Canadian win. Champion Room Spray blends notes of bubbly champagne, Canadian lager, used hockey pucks, and the undeniable musk of sweaty hockey gear. I don’t know what those scents smell like, but I need a bottle.
“It’s been a long 32 years without a win north of the border,” says James Kawalecki, VP Marketing, Boston Pizza International. “Canadian hockey fans have followed every superstition and ritual to end our drought but it’s time we do something different. This year, we need to break the cycle and field-of-dreams the win.”
So let’s go Montreal Canadiens Toronto Maple Leafs, Vancouver Canucks, Edmonton Oilers, Calgary Flames, Ottawa Senators, and Winnipeg Jets! It is time to reclaim your title and piss off that orange guy in the White House.
Although if they win, he might ban them from coming to the States to play in future games.
The room spray is only available at four Canadian locations. Front and John, Cityplace, Ice District, and Kanata, for a limited time.
A few years ago, TikTok introduced me to The Savannah Bananas, a unique baseball team that brings joy to the game, which doesn’t have it like it used to. The players, including the one on stilts, dance and have fun with their fans, so it is not just nine innings of running the bases!
The players have gotten so popular on social media that ESPN is adding them to their lineup on April 26th.
“The Savannah Bananas have mastered the art of blending baseball with entertainment, creating an experience that resonates with fans of all ages, regardless of their baseball knowledge,” said Brent Colborne, ESPN Vice President of Programming & Content Strategy. “Their unique approach embodies two of ESPN’s key goals: reaching new audiences and inspiring the next generation of youth athletes. With Banana Ball showcased on ESPN and Disney linear and streaming platforms, we are confident new, avid fans will be created.”
“Our relationship with ESPN has been outstanding for the Savannah Bananas and for the sport of Banana Ball,” said Jesse Cole, founder and CEO of the Savannah Bananas. “As the ‘Greatest Show in Sports’ makes its way to sold out MLB, College Football and NFL Stadiums, ESPN is the perfect place to showcase the electricity of the game as we near the launch of the Banana Ball Championship League in 2026.”
Discover their electricity on social media and then watch them do their thing on the small screen.
Banana Ball will be showcased on Friday and Saturday nights on ESPN or ESPN2, with all ten games to simulcast live on Disney+ and ESPN+.
Remember those two assholes from Connecticut, because no one from The Bronx would do that, who tried to steal the ball from Los Angeles Dodgers right fielder Mookie Betts’ glove during Game 4 of the World Series against The Yankees? Well, Major League Baseball has an update on their future of going to any more baseball games in the future.
Here is the letter that the MLB sent to two MoFos:
“On October 29, 2024, during Game 4 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium, you interfered with play by intentionally and forcefully grabbing a player. Your conduct posed a serious risk to the health and safety of the player and went far over the line of acceptable fan behavior.
“Based on your conduct, Major League Baseball (‘MLB’) is banning you indefinitely from all MLB stadiums, offices, and other facilities. You are also hereby banned indefinitely from attending any events sponsored by or associated with MLB.
“Please be advised that if you are discovered at any MLB property or event, you will be removed from the premises and subject to arrest for trespass.”
I really hope they decide to show up at one of the places they have been banned from just so we can see them get arrested. Is that wrong?
When it comes to the NFL these days, all everyone seems to be talking about is the Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.
However, there is another star who needs more attention, and that is The Viking’s Camryn Bynum. The Safety has been leading his teammates in celebratory dance numbers when he does things like recover another fumble.
This week, the football players were all in it together as they showed off their moves to High School Musical’s We’re All In This Together! And it was perfect.
As we know, practice makes perfect, and practice is what they did! It is nice to see them have fun when they are off the field!
I can’t wait to see what Camryn has them do next (Please be something from Wicked) because he and his teammates have been killing it this season with dances like this and recreating the White Chicks routine!
In 2004, the Wayans brothers released a little movie called White Chicks. Twenty years later, it is still influencing others!
Yesterday, when The Minnesota Vikings’ Josh Metellus and Camryn Bynum scored an interception against the Atlanta Falcons, the two Safeties did a Safety Dance. Sorry, wrong song. They did the dance that Marlon and Shawn Wayans did in the comedy. And they nailed it.
Talking about nails. The two football players were just six years old when the film came out.
