Islanders fans, now is the time to let your voices be heard by management. Sign this petition and let Charles Wang know how you feel.
To: Charles Wang and The New York Islanders Organization
We, the fans of the New York Islanders, respectfully demand the return of the “Chicken Dance Song”. We demand that it be played during all hockey games at the Nassau Coliseum commencing immediately.
This song has been a long standing tradition of our team, our history and our lives as fans. It has been there when we were kids and it will be there as we teach our children to be the next generation of Islander fans.
It is appalling to think that this, one of the longest standing traditions of Islander Fans, has been removed. Why don’t we discontinue the Chicken dance song when they abolish that whistle thing they do at the Garden disparaging one of the greatest Islander players to lace up the skates as well as a Hockey Hall of Famer?
We, the NY Islander fans, have been through many travesties over the past two decades all of which would be too lengthy to print here. For this reason we demand that the Chicken Dance not be added to the list of those travesties.
We expect to hear the Chicken Dance Song at the first game of the Stanley Cup playoffs to take place at the NCVMC in April…
…We expect to hear it at the next game.
