UGH! one of my pet peeves....ITS NOT "ICE HOCKEY", IT JUST PLAIN "HOCKEY"


When one lives in a part of the world where outside temperatures cannot
support year-round ice, one improvises.

As a result, field hockey and indoor hockey were created. Most likely
"ice" was added to hockey to eliminate confusion.

Oh, and I almost forgot tonsil hockey, usually played by teenagers in lust.
