There’s Racism, And Then There’s AHL ‘Los Icehogs Night’ With Mexican Mustache Jerseys And Dora The Explorer
Mexicans shouldn’t even be upset about this. When someone takes it this far, the reaction’s gotta be absolutely past the point of being offended. Like Chappelle said sometimes it’s so racist that you just gotta step back and say “Wow”. It’s not even worth getting bad. Poncho jerseys with the Mexi-stache Icehogs logo, free maracas to the first 2500 fans, sombreros ON THE NUMBERS? Racist would have been playing La Cucaracha after every goal. This, ladies and gentleman, is next-level.
It’s amazing that Corona is not only cool with this but is actually a PAYING sponsor. Doesn’t make any sense to me. Corona is an actual Mexican company with real Mexican employees who pays real Mexican taxes to Mexico. They know damn well real Mexicans don’t walk around in colorful ponchos and sombreros. Maybe the mustaches and maracas, but not the panchos. That’s raycess.
I have an idea. Let’s have a non-gender, non-culture night at the game. Everyone dress in neutral grey and cover your faces in a burlap sack. Sounds fun!
First of all, it’s not racist unless you want it to be. Second of all, this is hilarious as are most “racist” jokes.
You would have hated Popeyes “Find your baby daddy a job” night
Whats got 6 balls and screws niggas?

replace powerade with purple drank. switch out pucks for tiny watermelons. get rid of players’ skates and the ice surface. “iceniggas night.”
Am I the only one who doesn’t think this is racist or offensive at all? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
Can’t believe after the second day of re-electing one of the worst Presidents of all time just because he was Black and we’re still talking racism (of ANY race) in the United States. Give it a rest Mo.
Green death, I am with you. I honestly don’t get what the big deal is. Yeah these are mexican stereotypes but none of them are crude or offensive at all
This is not racism! This is sterotyping. America is in such trouble. We don’t even understand the meanings of words anymore.
ra·cism
1.animosity toward other races: prejudice or animosity against people who belong to other races
2.belief in racial superiority: the belief that people of different races have different qualities and abilities, and that some races are inherently superior or inferior
Not to worry Mo; black guys can’t swim or ice skate. Too much like actual work. Enjoy that grape soda.
