Sport: Hockey
Date: March 29, 2001
Venue: First Union Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
What Happened: When a fan heckling Toronto Maple Leafs player Tie Domi shattered the glass to the penalty box, the fists started flying.
Bottom line: Hockey players exchanging punches during games is nothing new, but the incident between middle-aged Flyers fan Chris Falcone and Tie Domi in 2001 was out of the ordinary, to say the least.
The confrontation started when Domi started spraying the taunting fan with a water bottle over the penalty box glass. When the fan decided to reach over the glass in an effort to take a swing at Domi, the window gave way, and chaos ensued.
Years later, any hard feelings between the two had vanished, and they reunited on a morning radio show.
"You’re a great guy and a family guy, and I’m happy everything is behind us," Domi said.
"You too, man," said Falcone.
