I am not mad at this. I remember going to the King Fish and sitting in the front row and two players collided right in front of me and squared off for a second and that shite was exciting as hell.
It really doesn't get better than drinking beer and watching some contact sport with people fighting.

Nothing like getting drunk and watching undersized Canadian kids beat the shite out of each other.

Hard to expand the NHL into mid sized markets in the south. Hockey is primarily a white blue collar Midwest/northeast game.
An affiliated ECHL team would be pretty cool, kind of like an AA or AAA baseball team. Get to see the occasional pro with a few rising stars. But baby steps.

Damn, didn't realize it was that well attended.
Why can't we have a minor league baseball team in Louisiana?
I'd think BR could support a AA team, right?

Mayor-President called it a “major milestone”.
No Sharon, it isn't. Cause the city already had this. This is a repeat.
A "major milestone" would be BRPD losing an entire helicopter and its crew and no one noticing for several hours.
How bout you address that milestone in incompetency and ask Chief Dolomite for an explanation.

Well Baton Rouge already has a baseball team, Shreveport/Nola/Laffy could get one if they built a new stadium.

There seems to be some missing information in the local media. This is from the FPHL:
The current FPHL teams are:
Carolina Thunderbirds - Winston-Salem, NC
Columbus River Dragons - Columbus, GA
Mississippi Sea Wolves - Biloxi, MS
Motor City Rockers - Fraser, MI
Port Huron Prowlers - Port Huron, MI
Binghampton Black Bears - Binghampton, NY
Danbury Hat Tricks - Danbury, CT
Delaware Thunder - Harrington, DE
Elmira Mammoth - Elmira, NY
Watertown Wolves - Watertown, NY
The other expansion team joining Baton Rouge is Virginia, but probably not the part Virginia you are thinking of. The Virginia expansion team will be in Wytheville, an Appalachian town between Bristol TN and Roanoke with a population less than 8,000.
Baton Rouge's Pro Hockey will have one of the largest arenas in the league, only second to Biloxi.
Speaking of the league arenas, this is home game on Delaware Thunder's home ice:

...
The as yet unnamed team will have their name decided in an online vote as the community can submit names over the next week and then several will be chosen to be voted on to have the official name chosen by the fans. All of this will be done on Baton Rouge Pro Hockey's social media!
Season tickets will be on sale shortly concluding with a pick your seat event in July when all interested parties will be allowed into the Raising Cane's River Center to visible see the new layout and physically pick their seat. Make sure you have emailed info@brprohockey.com or tickets@brprohockey.com to be on the list for those announcements.

For a mayor desperate for positive news this is big, very big.
When Kim won it all, I thought Broome was gonna move to the PMAC.

The Baton Rouge "Hellcats" or The B.R. "Burnouts".

Ouch! Those are going to be some gruesome bus rides or is the team actually going to charter flights?
