Checking out a hockey game for the first time, what do I need to know?

Sit near the band and Corner Crew. Or in the crew if you're feeling ambitious (and wearing orange). Wear orange anyway. Yell a lot. Be sure to press the delete button for all away team members who won't be playing. Be heartbroken for each and every home team player who won't be playing. Rocky says "Zweigles", you say "SAUSAGE!" Participate in the Corner Crew Welcome call and response. Tell the other team they suck, but only if it's a men's team. (There's a lot of debate about this - feel free to not tell anyone they suck.) When the buzzer sounds at the end of practice, tell the other team to get off the ice. When Goon says "Hey Zamboni" you say "Stu!" Welcome the home team again. Express dislike of the away team again. Most players: "You suck!" Players from Canada: "You suck, eh!" Players from California: "You suck, sunshine!" Players from Minnesota: "You suck, dontchya know!" Remember the first name of the away goalie. Repeat after Rocky during home team role call. Yell more. Sing the national anthems. Poorly. Clap and sing the "Hey Song". Puck drop. HOCKEY! When asked what the away goalie's name is, declare that their name is "Loser". When asked a second time, grudgingly admit their real name. Call the goalie a sieve. Do that a few more times. Watch more hockey. Listen to Rocky do commercials with his awesome voice. Participate in the other chants. MORE HOCKEY! Duck when the puck comes flying over the glass. Give it to a kid. If the away goalie lifts their mask for a drink, point out loudly that they are decidedly unattractive. If our goalie lifts their mask, make it known that they are sexy as hell. When RIT scores, don't say "it's all your fault!" more times than is appropriate. If the away team scores, cheer even harder for RIT. Don't miss the second period set. EVEN MORE HOCKEY! Continue being loud, obnoxious, and excited even though you've already been at it for over an hour. Don't forget to jump around, jump on it, and put your hands up and make them stay there. Stand for the last minute or so of the game. Jingle your keys but only if RIT is sure to win. Respond emphatically to the outcome of the game. Go home.

Or at least that's how I did it.
