Considering most Zambonis run on propane - a fire like this is rather terrifying.

That’s like trying to convince people that “That skidoo over there is actually a honda”. Good luck with that. :smiley:

The person gets points for trying to save the ice, but I would have been off it in a second to tell somebody to call the fire brigade and get a fire extinguisher.

The Flaming Zambonis is the name of my new band. Or better yet, my curling team. Maybe I should learn how to curl just so I can do that…
