Detroit — The people just love George.
What's become a Little Caesars Arena tradition brought a little extra fame to a young fan in attendance at Saturday's 5-2 win for the Detroit Red Wings.
During an extended break in the action during the third period, the video board at Little Caesars Arena showed a young fan with a sign behind him, saying it was his first game (and that his name was George). The crowd cheered. The video board screen then flipped between showing George and Canucks fans, with the crowd's cheers for George and jeers for Canucks fans growing louder each time.
