who caught Prince's guitar after flung it at the end?
it just disappears into the nothing - dmnted
What happened to the guitar prince played at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
Per explicit instructions from Prince, Takumi stood in the front row and caught the guitar...and then promptly handed it to Oprah Winfrey. Prince was known to toss many a guitar over the years, but this one deserves its own place in the R&R Hall of Fame
It absolutely is true and I definitely blame the Rangers as well. This is the kind of thing that gets the league in trouble. There is a lot of talk about concussions and CTE but this is another example of a lack of action. Unfortunately there are going to be more problems with this type of thing before things actually change. I'm a big believer that fighting is a part of hockey and should continue to have a place in the game but the team and league must do a better job of protecting a 21 year old kid from himself in situations like this.

Reaves did not go anywhere near him until his dirty hit knocked Boosh out of the game. If the kid shouldn't be fighting he should not be stretching at the red line during warmup. Anyone who knows anything about the fighters code in the NHL knows that is the beginning of an invitation.

And the Germans would be able to see it and they would all laugh. My uncles flew in those beasts. One didn’t come home. - Canada Cup
I just never really put a lot of thought into how violent air warfare was in those days and how it all took place at close range. Now, it's almost all standoff ranges and your target is just a blip on a screen in an AWACS plane.
It's like trench warfare in the sky - bloody, up close, and pants-poopingly terrifying.
I remember asking him about shooting at fighters and the obvious stuff you would ask a turret gunner, but one thing he said stood out. He said the flak scared him more than the fighters. He said you could shoot back at the fighters. The flak is just a wall of big cloud of hot shrapnel you have to fly through and pray.
