Clayton Keller Calls Out Mammoth Fans for Whistling During Games

Somebody tell everyone new to hockey in Utah that you don't whistle during a game. Especially collectively over 10,000 of you at a time.

It's turned into a whacky arena in Utah as this weird tradition started a couple of weeks ago, and has seemingly taken off. The players have noticed though, and shocker, they don't want to hear it. Utah Mammoth forward Clayton Keller was recently asked about what the fans have been up to and he made it as clear as day, enough is enough.

“It’s been pretty disruptive, to be honest,” Keller said. “I don’t know where it’s stemming from, but if they can maybe quiet that down and do it after the game or before the game. A lot of us have noticed it and I think it would be better if it was not a thing, to be honest. I don’t know, maybe do something else, but not whistle. That’s the first time I’ve heard of it, or seen it, I guess. It was pretty annoying.”

The Mammoth are currently in the middle of a big homestand, so hopefully they can get this sorted and if they need to, announce something before the game starts. We can't have fans whistling during a hockey game and expect nothing to happen.

Dear Mammoth fans. The whistling is lame and it disrupts the players who frequently whistle to signal each other during the game. Don’t be “those noob hockey fans” that do stupid shit and think it’s cute and funny. Please and thank you. #tusksup
