Answer 1

Awesome Bill (at a game): See that Ice Girl down there doing her job?

Bill's Date (let's call her Polly Clueless): Uhhh, what's an Ice Girl?

AB: The hottie on the ice, there, in front of us.

PC: Ice?

AB: (Drawing the WWF magazine from Polly) You see that huge white thing in the center of the building? The thing with different colored stripes that just had players in different colored uniforms playing on it for last half hour or so?

PC: Why do they play it on ice?

AB: Why do you pluck your eyebrows and then draw them back on your face? I don't friggin" know, just look at the girl with the shovel dammit!

PC: Oh yeah, hey, she's got a shovel. Why does she have a shovel?

***Awesome Bill contemplates his reason for existence at this point***

AB: (Pinching bridge of nose) mumbles: I don't know, maybe she's going to whack me on the head for bringing you to the game with me.

AB: All I'm asking is, do you see the girl skating around with the shovel and removing the ice shavings?

PC: No, the lights are too dim.

AB: (Thinking: "Yeah, what a coincidence") Alright. Look. I gotta get something to drink, you want anything?

PC: No, I had a cracker a few hours ago, I'm full right now.

AB: If the lights come on before I return, try to pay attention to the girl before she goes into the tunnel, okay?

PC: You want me to come along?

AB: Naw, I think I can do this myself, besides, I got to use the men's room. Here's a quarter, try to find the picture of Brad Pitt on it.

PC: Uh, okay.

AB: (To the usher) See that broad I am with? Make sure she doesn't do anything to hurt herself, okay? Thanks.

USHER: What would she do?

AB: She might try to think on her own.

***Awesome Bill sneaks away out of Wachovia Center***

AB: (To self) Why me God? Whyyyy me?

***Meanwhile, back inside where the lights are back on***

PC: (To self) Oh, I see her now. That beeotch is dressed S****y and all. She doesn't have to do anything but push that, that thingy around for a few minutes. I can do that. I'm gonna get her job so all the men can look at me. I can't wait to tell Bill when he get's back.

***Bill exit's parking lot***

Answer 2

I don't mind the Ice Girls.  What I do mind are Islander fans who use them as a reason to choose the Islanders over the Rangers and Devils.

I mean, there's plenty of reasons not to choose the Rangers.

And any woman who would go to a WWE event, regardless of reason, is not a woman I want to see.  I ain't THAT desperate.

Answer 3

I don't have a problem with them.

It's not as though they are running around half naked. Most of them wear pants - and if they're wearing skirts they're wearing those cheerleading underwear under the skirts and stockings.. so what if they are showing 3 inches of their stomach?

plus, they throw free things out during intermissions for the fans.

Answer 4

Can you help the Hockey section. Please ask your hockey questions in the Football [American] catagory so Yahoo answers will fix the Hockey catagory. Thanks. Past this on to all Hockey Fans.  

Answer 5

the ice girls serve no purpose.

my wife and I aren't rednecks so we do not watch wwe.

edit-they could hire an average joe to do that job.

Answer 6

When I see the Ice Girls I think of the ancient days BZ (Before Zamboni). In those days six men in white shirts, ties, and cardigans (blue and white in Toronto). They walked around the ice pulling their little ice flooding waggons behind them resurfacing the ice.

They didn't have to clean up the scrapings and they never broke down spilling hydraulic fluid all over the ice.  

Answer 7

I don't like the Ice Girls because I came to the game to watch my team, not some girl. I understand that the Girls serve a purpose, but if you really think about it they're unnecessary.

Answer 8

It takes all types to make the world go-round. BUT, the problem is this... lawyers arent taught in school which types they should take on (or to avoid)  to make cases for!

Btw... what is this WWE thing you talk about? Never heard of it. Please explain. Because I am not participating in a World Wide e***a event for no reason!

Answer 9

I'm with Homes - if they let you wear proper clothes, and don't make you dance, then it wouldn't be a bad job to have around your favourite team.

I'm just not happy with it when they get to be... well, cheerleaders.  I'm turned off most sport for its 'circus' element and can't really see much point in cheerleaders in hockey - I can see it as useful to keep the guys happy during football, where they stop every 2 minutes, but in hockey there's more going on for more of the time you're watching.  

Nothing wrong with strippers.  I hear there's good money in it.  I wanted to be a belly dancer when I was little, so there's no accounting for taste.

As for men in tights, um, no.  Not for me - as I once told Beerslayer, I'd much rather see blokes in armour wielding a big stick.

Nice to see you properly dressed again, in your avatar.

Answer 10

I don't hate Ice Girls. They clean the ice shavings, launch t-shirts into the crowd and provide a general distraction during TV timeoots. They're just another part of the entertainment which just happens to be aimed mostly at the guys. I have no problem with that.

Answer 11

At the risk of condemnation, I am not a fan of the Ice Girls.  Do I want to see it in Toronto?  No chance (only because it runs the risk of the best thing on the ice on a given night), but look...if other people like it, then fine.  I saw it at a game in Anaheim, and...thought "oh, what the heck...if they like it, so be it".  

To your point...it's honest work.  

On my list of things at games I cannot stand, it's not in the top 20.  I'll put up with the Ice Girls every day of the week before the abomination of Carolina's Ambiguously g*y Neon Dancing Duo.

Answer 12

they are kind of pointless to me but i wouldnt really know becuase i've never actaully been to a game that has them.  I like the way the caps run it now they dont need girls to run the entertainment.  They have youth league's mvps of the month shovel the ice and thats good how it is and i like watching the mites on ice and the other games i dont wanna change.  I cant say i hate them cause i've never really expiereinced them

Answer 13

I don't have a particular problem with Ice Girls but don't say that they serve a purpose because they clean the ice between periods.  

Come on, how many years have we had zambonis now?????  Their purpose is to be pretty and entertaining.  Why is this a problem?  Why try to justify their existence?  Do football or basketball need to justify cheerleaders?  Does boxing try to justify the hot chick that walks around the ring with the round number?

Can the feminists please go pick on another sport for a change!!??!!

Add: Oh, I get it now....sorry don't have Ice Girls in Toronto and I've never been to a game anywhere else.  Still...I don't see the harm in having pretty girls floating around the rink.

Answer 14

  If my better half is going to WWE events....she's going without me.

Answer 15

I don't hate them, they are doing a job that I couldn't do - trust me no one wants to see me in a outfit like that!

I have also seen them appear at charity events and give a hand, nothing wrong with that.

As for the WWE, I'll pass.  Show me a big bruiser hockey player any day!

Answer 16

I considered trying out for that once.  I was a horrible cheerleader in high school, but I know how to skate.  Think about the benifits...you get to go to all these games...hang with hockey players........and all you have to do is wear MORE clothing than you do on the beach and scoop up ice shavings with a big golden shovel......and you get PAID.  If that is not a sweet job...then I don't know what is.
