Despite the fact that the audience shines with their absence in Tegera arena, Leksand Supertar had ambitions to fill the arena with scarves.
The initiators had not believed that more than 10,000 would be sold.
- Of course we dreamed of such a figure when we started talking about it all.
We believed in selling the arena (7650 scarves) quite strongly, but as always you paint even higher target images so there was a small and wild fantasy of reaching over 10,000 scarves.
That we managed to get there is incredibly fun, says Leksand Superstars chairman Torbjörn Olsson.
According to Sportbladet Leksands IF, an extra income of approximately one million kronor, youth hockey 100,000 kronor, Tobias Forsbergs foundation 180,000 kronor and 50,000 kronor earmarked for women's hockey.
In total, the fans must have paid three million kroner for the scarves.
Tobias Forsberg, who injured himself so badly on the ice that he was partially paralyzed two years ago, was on the ice before the match to receive the check.
It was the first time since the accident that the former player was in place in a real match.
