Flyers fans and family pay respects to Ed Snider at memorial

PHILADELPHIA (AP)Ed Snider once kicked Donald Trump out of a suite during a playoff game.

No, not because Snider, a noted Ayn Rand disciple, may have had differing political views from Trump.

The offense — The Donald would not stop talking.

Snider never wanted an interruption when he watched his beloved Philadelphia Flyers, the team he founded and owned until his death last week. He was remembered Thursday for his love of the Flyers, the fans and family at a public tribute at the Wells Fargo Center.
