Media Advisory - ALL-NEW HORSE HOCKEY AT THE ROYAL STARRING NHL SUPERSTARS

He shoots - HE GALLOPS - he scores!

TORONTO, Oct. 28 /CNW/ - For the first time ever, on Saturday, November 6, The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair will pit NHL legends Darryl Sittler and Rick Vaive against Brad Marsh and Mark Napier in a game of Horse Hockey. Horse Hockey - played just like polo - will entertain fairgoers as the hockey stars trade in their skates for a saddle and gallop down the playing field to aim, shoot and score their way to victory!

The game will officially kick off with 1972 hockey icon Paul Henderson throwing in the first ball.
