When a team is dead-last in the standings, it’s usually the fans telling them that they stink, not the other way around.
In this case it was the Oshawa Generals — currently sitting in the sewer of the Ontario Hockey League — that sent a nostril-flaring email to its loyal season-ticket holders, reminding them to shower before attending games at the Tribute Communities Centre in downtown Oshawa.
“If you went to the gym or did something that produced body odour, please shower before attending the game,” the team’s director of ticket sales and service advised in the email.
The email also asked fans to be vigilant about spreading germs.
“Please make use of the hand-sanitizing stations located throughout the arena, cover coughs and sneezes and be mindful of personal cleanliness while sharing our space with fellow fans.”
Not surprisingly, the note raised enough of a stink for the team to issue an apology.
“Hey Gensnation, we took a penalty on that last one,” a social media post from the team states.
“It’s not our place to overstep like we did. We are sorry and hopefully we can wash this one off.”

Is this the Canuck form of the Bee?
There was no way that official suggestion was ever going to be taken well. Better off improving the air conditioning.
Had there been several complaints about the “odour”?
You can imagine the reaction that must have gotten the moment the complainer left the room.
Another method of female tyranny in my opinion. You also better not go to work after using a nice-smelling but strong shampoo...because it’s not THEIR chosen scent.
The stink is from the imports the government brings in , they laugh at washing and deodorant
In other words:
The team is the only group that’s allowed to stink up the place!
The fans are French Canadians. What does he expect of them?
(ducking)
Light a match!
Ah, thanks. FR would be nothing without someone to fact check jokes.
ok out of the shower.....well it’s not due south of Ottawa exactly. I think he meant southern Ontario which is a more extensive area. Oshawa is just east of Toronto and much closer to it than Ottawa.
Sounds like hockey is becoming popular with the Hindus.
Yeah a pretty grim place. Like Detroit a car factory town.
