In Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Tampa Bay Lightning witnessed a Detroit Red Wings fan allegedly attempt to light their giant fan flag on fire as it was passed over the crowd. She was subsequently booked on an arson charge.

And so we’ve gone from an arrest for fire to an arrest for firearms.
Police arrested 27-year-old Lucas Cassidy of St. Petersburg – we’ll just go ahead and assume his nickname is “Butch” – on a second-degree misdemeanor charge for carrying his weapon into a facility where they are explicitly prohibited.
