Zamboni fire Exclusive WXOU Details

WXOU EXCLUSIVE DETAILS:

From a Source:

Employees at Arena did a great job getting everyone out safely.

200 People Max were in the Evacuated not 500 like is being reported.

No Injuries is correct. Driver jumped off safely with no injures as well.

Would have been trouble if someone had of been on it with the driver, Propane tank is right under where other people would be on it such as those intermission ride with the Zamboni stuff.

This makes future rides a concern, discussion going on about this now.

Damage reaches basically everywhere. Can get into more later.

Black Soot on the Glass in the other Ice Surfaces in the Arena not just the one where the Fire was.

Was concern with the other gas and propane that is contained in a hockey rink that it could have been worse, all this stuff is very flammable and it all over a hockey rink could have been worse much worse.

Everyone seems to be blaming everyone else right now.


Stay Tuned to WXOU Sports for more Exclusive Details, we will have discussion on this Tuesday at 3pm and Wednesday at 5pm on 88.3FM and wxou.org with more details.
