You know how you'll sometime get that jokey idea about the Devils or Rangers actually FLYING to go play one another?

And how you'd smirk and laugh that "Hah, that's such a stupid idea nobody would ever do that. I mean how long would you even be in the air for?"

Answer: 10 minutes.

Yes, people did.

You can track the excitement here as some Rangers fans actually flew (and the Rangers sponsored this BTW, they are culpable in this idiocy, it was their CONTEST) from LaGuardia to Newark to see the game Saturday at the Prudential Center. An Airbus A319 flew people at 3000 feet those ten anguishing minutes. You can get the rest of this story here from the New York Times.

Game four tonight, pivotal as they saw the the broadcaster booth.

Breaking News--Airbus A-320 ditches into the Hudson River

An Airbus A-320 had an aborted takeoff on it's way to Charlotte North Carolina from New York's Laguardia airport and wound up floating in the Hudson River. Early indications are everyone is OK (which is the important thing here) and the plane may have been hit by a flock of birds which is what caused the aborted takeoff.

Passengers used the emergency exits and waited for rescue on the wings. Passengers kept their heads and should be commended along with the crew.

Johnny sent intern Zoltron down to the Hudson River to get pictures and interview authorities but he said it was too cold and said Johnny should go instead. His exact words were "Go piss up a rope".

No word on if any of the birds were arrested for causing the accident though President George W. Bush has called them 'evildoers'.
