Caesar Zambonicus

A piece from the L.A. Times features an interviewish thing with soon-to-retire NHL referee Ron Schick … inter alia:

Among his fondest memories, he said, is working the outdoor game between the Kings and New York Rangers in 1991 in the parking lot outside Casears Palace in Las Vegas.

“Kelly Hrudey wore the Hrudey-cam, Caesar drove the Zamboni and Cleopatra sang the national anthem,” Shick said. “I remember Wayne Gretzky saying, ‘Shicker, I’ve seen a lot of things in my day but I’ve never seen anything like this.'”

Wow … I’ve never ever heard of this before … pity I can’t find a photo of it anywhere …
