Take Off, Jets!

Bunch a hosers. (For the first Canes vs. Winnipeg Jets game in the RBC Center)

Vapor Trails

First game against the Winnipeg Jets in the RBC Center. Too bad the Canes never got off the ground.

Unhinge the Staal

After all this time, my first Staal sign.

Fry the Frenchies

Made this one during the second intermission on November 23, 2011 for Canes vs. Montreal. There were three French Canadians sitting in front of me hitting on two teen girls in front of them. They were making me laugh until the one guy started chanting "F*** you, Canes" -- at which point I began to call him a "shower"
in his language.

Conquer the Fear

Made this sign for the bout between the Carolina Rollergirls All-Stars (Raleigh) vs. Cape Fear Roller Girls All-Stars (Wilmington). CRG won. Sad to see a lot of skaters retire after this game.

Thankful Not to Be from Buffalo

This one got a nice round of applause from the crowd at the RBC Center.

The Lake Effect

I wanted for this to say something more like "WARNING: LAKE EFFECT CAUSES DOUCHEBAGS," but, well, you know. As far as Buffalo games go, especially ones where the Canes lose, the douchebaggery wasn't quite so bad this time. Maybe because only one goal was scored. :(

Hip to Be Square

I can envision an entire marketing campaign centered around this slogan if only Huey Lewis would consent. But maybe he's not tough enough.

Strike Through the CAPITALS

I'm kind of an editing geek. Unveiled at the Hurricanes v. Washington Capitals game on Friday, November 4.

That Guy Faulk's Night

I made this sign earlier in the season, when Justin Faulk was playing for the Carolina Hurricanes, but since then, he has been sent back down to the Charlotte Checkers, the Canes' minor league affiliate. I should know better than to make signs too early! Seems like players get traded or injured when I make a sign in their honor. Too bad this one only works close to the Fifth of November. Maybe he'll be around next year.

MORON-->

This and similar signs come in very handy when my home arena is overrun with fans for the other team. Unfortunately, such was the case on Friday, November 4, 2011, for the Canes v. Washington Capitals game.

The other side of this sign says, "<--WE'RE NOT WITH STUPID" so that the joke makes sense whether you are seated behind me or in front of me. Towards the end of the game, which the Canes lost miserably, a female Crapitals fan behind me, who was sitting with a particularly annoying male Crapitals fan, yelled, "Who's with Stupid now?"

I yelled back, "Not me. I think that would be you."

I always wonder why visiting fans of the opposing team stand up and yell and cheer for the Storm Squad to shoot them a free t-shirt. If you are a Crapitals or Barfalo fan, why are you begging for a Carolina Hurricanes t-shirt? Maybe underneath the stupid, a proper fan is screaming to get out.
