Likes ants swarming from a nest, the crowds flock into the arena just in time to see an ice hockey match between the loose-leafs and the pelicans - well that's what it eventually says on the score sheet. The teams are led by "Fearless Ferguson" ("Goofy") and "Icebox Bertoni" ("Goofy") and a heated rivalry is guaranteed! Under the arbitration of "Clean Game Kinney" ("Goofy") - the casting budget was obviously an issue here, off we go and pretty soon it's end to end stuff with the crowds having little idea who's doing what before the much anticipated carnage ensues on and off the ice! As ever, the game is carefully judged to come to an head with a few seconds left to go, and is accompanied by a pun-ridden commentary that tries to keep the punters vaguely informed of the chaos. Indeed, as things hot enough up there's even an opportunity for a "Spitfire" to shoot, too! Does anyone really care about the result - the teams sure don't. Good fun, this - loads of action and hats off to the breathless commentator, too!
