Original Title: TIL why NHL Stadiums sound an air horn after a goal is scored. Thank Bill Wirtz, owner of both Chicago Stadium and the Blackhawks, who liked the sound of his air horn on his yacht, so he had one installed inside the stadium in 1973. His uncle’s company made it, and most NHL horns come from them.
