How is the Org not doing anything about this? This does not sound enjoyable at all.

TIME TO REVISIT THIS GROUP:

Opening Night 2021 - Banners & Drums. HUGE complaints - Many STH demanded to be moved away from these "fans" who think they are so important.

Fast Forward to Opening Night 2022. This from a Season Ticket Holder who was lucky enough to view the following:

"So, I sit in 304 and about 4-6 rows behind them. They were very loud all night; which cool, I’m loud too. But then in the 3rd they kept waving flags during play and several of us couldn’t see. there were several people, including myself who asked them nicely to put the flag down. The dude turned around and kept yelling either “no, or **** you” whenever we asked.

Eventually one of the guys behind me went down and grabbed the flag and they started exchanging words. The guy who was waving the flag proceeded to scream and yell and curse at him while everyone, including my 5 year old and the 7 year old behind us looked on.

His friends got involved and were all screaming at this one individual. That guy went down to security and the ushers and they proceeded to call him names and make the “throat slice sign” and flip him off every time he walked by....It was just so inappropriate. Don’t get me wrong. I'm all for rowdy and loud and we’re here to have fun. I’ve been coming to games since I was 4 (I’m currently 32) and I have never complained"

When I informed my rep about this incident (I'm in 328 - far enough away from these self-righteous "fans") all he says is that the "organization is working with this group" - and that they "are aware".

This is just one person's experience - yet there are way more.

Fans changing locations.
Fans not coming anymore.
etc..

Sorry - been going to games since 1974... these "fans" belong in Left Field Pavilion or The Black Hole with their behavior.

I guess they can't just be cool...they have to ruin everyone else's experience.

I think the Kings desire to bring a Soccer environment to hockey is a total miss. If you're going to do it, they better be in the very last few rows of any section. Quite honestly, I've found some folks in the fan groups (Royal Army, Die Hard Kings) to be bit obnoxious which I why I tend to not participate much beyond here or this sites FB page.
 
They really are making it difficult to watch their product, and more importantly enjoy watching their product.

The spiraling out of control in-arena experience, moving away from AM radio and having to use the app, and more recently, the ROYAL ARMY with drums and flags at games, and now needing Bally Sports West+ to watch it at home.
