Wild fight breaks out at Edmonton Oilers Moss Pit as tradition continues
A fan fight will almost always break out during or after the game at an Edmonton Oilers watch party during the playoffs. It was the same last night.
Tensions increased during the Dallas Stars vs. Edmonton Oilers game five, both on the ice and at a watch party in Edmonton, which seems to be a regular occurrence these days.
This time, a fan fight broke out in the area known as the "moss pit," and these two fighters sparred, ostensibly for a stolen item.

Though it's unclear why this occurs every game—especially since there are two Oilers fans fighting at every playoff game—it appears to be working, as Edmonton is just one victory away from the Stanley Cup Final.
Fans shouldn't be getting hot anyway, but at the very least, the fan clashes are interesting and keep everyone alert.
