Zamboni driver wins appeal of drunk driving charge

The last time I was in Abernethy the Tampons were usually responsible for clearing the ice with the Aber Domes golf cart with the water tank. These days I believe the Aber Dome actually has a graffitti upped Zamboni, Dallas are you drunk when you clean the ice with your fancy Zamboni ? If so you have nothing to worry about now, as long as judges up here feel the same way as those in New Jersey do.

A judge in Newark New Jersey has overturned the drunk driving conviction of a Zamboni driver who's blood alcohol level was 0.12, when the legal limit in New Jersey is 0.08. His decision was based on the fact that Zamboni's can't carry passengers and don't operate on highways.

In 2005 a fellow employee of the man reported him to police when he was speeding on the ice and apparently almost hit the boards.

The operator of the Zamboni claimed that he did drink beer and vodka, but not until after he cleaned the ice, but he did admit to having sambuca with his breakfast coffee and two valiums.

NHL franchises worth more than ever

Not that most people could afford to buy them before, but the Edmonton Oilers value has rose from $104 million to $146 million. All other Canadian franchises have also risen between 17 and 40 percent since the 2003-04 season.
