Then we just need heart hockey and we can summon captain hockey

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 14 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Isnt heart hockey that weird Aztec game that sacrificed the winners?

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

I think they used heads for their game, I'm not sure what kind of captain you'd get if you tried to use head as the fifth element .. they might be more fun though ..

By your sticks combined, I am Captain Hockey!

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I thought love was the fifth element?

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 5 points 2 months ago

That summons captain Dallas, he's alright I guess

[–] ZoopZeZoop@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

That's green! Super green!

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

Best I can do is tonsil hockey.

[–] Bashnagdul@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I feel old now

That's dope.
But no left turns?

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It’s a right handed world.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (2 children)

He's holding up his right fist!

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago

It's all lies!

[–] 5too@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Phone pictures commonly flip left and right. It's actually his left fist.

...and the words are all backwards to express a left-handed reading preference!

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

I'll give you a point for trying

[–] resipsaloquitur@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Exactly what i was thinking. Thank you

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Can confirm. I watched a game between two teams that have obviously been practicing.

It's weird how their sashes mimic their personalities

An untold number of beers later:

[–] Maiq@lemy.lol 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Avatar kept balance between the Water Tribes, Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation, and Air Nomads. But that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked...

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

Maiq lies, Earth Kingdom shot first.

[–] Schmoo@slrpnk.net 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

In chapter 6 of the original Yu-Gi-Oh manga Yugi plays table hockey on a hot griddle with an ice puck containing a test tube full of explosives. Does that count as fire hockey?

[–] glibg@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Thank you for this

Street hockey in the summer

Or NHL hit 2002 (can we please have a remake?)

[–] TehWorld@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hockey is fire to start with. 🔥🔥🔥

[–] stinky@redlemmy.com 1 points 2 months ago

why are they all hot

[–] lemming@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago (2 children)

There is also undewater hockey. Two water hockeys to offset the lack of fire hockey?

[–] spudsrus@aussie.zone 1 points 2 months ago

In a similar vein I have also seen underwater ice hockey which is pretty insane

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Man, that last goal where Pekele swam 12 feet up and dive bombed Leretsky at the last minute was insane. I think. The bubbles obscured a lot of it.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Sounds like Blitzball

[–] toy_boat_toy_boat@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

we had Mutant League Hockey. we just didn't know how special it was

[–] RevolverSly@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

It's called pasárutakua and is played among indigenous people from Michoacán, México.

[–] Enkrod@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago

Now I want to see air hockey, but with propane instead of compressed air.

And pro-pain accessories.

[–] Foreigner@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago
[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Definitely need hockey played on rocket skates.

[–] scathliath@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I hear an excuse to build a rocket league themed demo-derby.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Local hockey team are the wolf burners.. 🤔

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 months ago

Fire hockey could be played while putting out wildfires. Two teams on opposite sides of the fire work to douse paths through the fire to the other side, the side with the most fire extinguished wins.

[–] Ferdapopcorn@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fire Hockey? That would be “rock ‘em, sock ‘em” hockey.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

That is just Ice Hockey. There's a reason for the penalty box.

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 months ago

Roller hockey... if you set the building on fire.
