The guy running the Mets’ marketing team must also work for the Islanders. At Saturday’s game against the Capitals, the Fishsticks did everything they could to get spectators in the door. To start the game, an Air National Guardsman repelled from the ceiling to drop the opening faceoff. That’s gimmicky enough, but wait, there’s more! During the second intermission, Bachelorette Season 7 winner and huge Islanders fan JP Rosenbaum took to the ice to show how to play the team’s Mohegan Sun Time To Shine game. Any ladies that were interested in joining him were invited to tweet the reason why they deserved the right, nay, privilege to do so.
As fate would have it, the Isles won 5-3, but remember Fishstick fans, if the 4-6-2 record or eight-goalie rotation wasn’t enough to lure you to the game, make sure to stop by the Nassau Mausoleum to see dudes flying from the ceiling and reality show rejects. Why else would you go to a hockey game?
