I think we can all relate to wanting to do what the hockey mom in the following video does. It's the fact that she actually did it that's so unbelievable.
During a youth hockey game in Boston, a fight breaks out, as fights often do in hockey. However, when the refs don't do enough to save her precious son from the blows, she marches out onto the ice, in front of the entire crowd, and lets them have it. With her finger wagging, she unleashes a few expletives as the refs tell her to get off of the ice. Watch after the jump.
My favorite part is that she brought her purse with her!
The woman hasn't been identified as of yet, and I'm not sure how old her son is, but can you even imagine how mortified he was/is/always will be? I cringe for him.

In the lady's defense, however, that ref on the right was doing nothing to stop the fight. He was just standing there, watching. If someone was pummeling my kid like that, I would find it hard to hold myself back too. I would ... or at least I hope I would. That mama bear instinct is pretty strong though, even if puts you on some pretty thin ice sometimes.
What do you think about this hockey mom -- bad move or bad ass?

My husband grew up playing hockey, and played hockey on a junior team as well as college, and he said he's never seen fighting like this until after high school. This is excessive and uncommon. As the mother of a son playing hockey (5 yrs old), I'd be furious about this level of fighting. I wouldn't go out onto the ice but you bet your ass I'd be running my mouth at that ref!
This mom was totally in the wrong. Anyone who watches hockey knows that fights happen. No one was getting pummeled either, one had the other in a headlock. I feel bad for that kid, how mortifying.
