The Predators coach called on fans not to throw dead catfish at the ice

Los Angeles local time on June 6, 2017 AFP reported that Nashville Predator coach Peter Lavioret on Monday appealed that fans would not throw dead catfish on the ice in the Stanley Cup final home game against pittsburgh penguins.

In the G3 game, Predators fans threw five dead catfish on the ice at Bridgestone Arena, a game in which the Nashville Predators eventually beat the Penguins 5-1 and rewrote the total score to 2-1.

The catfish problem also appeared in the first game last week, which caused the game to be extended, and Laviorete feared that this behavior would lead to penalties in the game.

"Hi everybody, show good athletic competition, be a good citizen of Smashville, that means don't throw anything on the ice anymore, it puts our players and coaches at risk." Lavioret warned fans in a video on Monday.

"Help us guard the home stadium, prevent us from being penalized for unnecessary willingness, please don't throw things on the ice, thank you for trying to be the best fans in the NHL league."

The origin of catfish throwing is currently unknown, but despite repeated prohibitions by the league, this has continued.

In the first game, Predator fan Jacob Wadell was charged by the local Pittsburgh police for throwing catfish at the Wang Ice Rink for disrupting order and disrupting the game.

In an interview with Nashville Television, the fan explained how he brought the dead fish into Pittsburgh's PPG Paints Stadium.

"I keep the catfish in the freezer and spray it with perfume." Wadel told Radio 104.5 in Nashville, "I was wearing two underwear, a real panty, a compression pants, and I put the fish in between and walked in. ”

"It's a stupid idea." He added.
