'''Section 102''' is undeniably the greatest collection of fans in the UHL and possibly in all of professional sports. Whether using the Horn From Hell, waving an actual body bag at opposing teams, singing ribald chants, or simply yelling directly down onto the visitors bench, Section 102 lets the visiting team know they are not welcome on the Danbury Ice and should simply give up and go back to the bus.
'''Section 102''' is perhaps the most well-known collection of sports in the UHL. Actions by these fans include blowing the "Horn From Hell" and waving a body bag at the opposing teams.

The Danbury Trashers are a United Hockey League ice hockey team located in Danbury, Connecticut. They play their home games at the Danbury Ice Arena.

The team was first established in the 2004-2005 season, with no previous roots as a team. The team is owned and sponsored by the AWD waste disposal company and owned by A.J. Galante, son of AWD CEO James Galante.

The Trashers recently completed a fairly successful season when they were eliminated in the semi-final round of the Colonial Cup Playoffs by the defending and ultimate champions, the Muskegon Fury.


The Trashers have developed a huge following in Danbury, and have attracted a large number of knowledgeable and rabid fans from New Haven, Connecticut. These vocal fans, formerly of Section 14 - The Jungle - at the New Haven Coliseum, have embraced the Trashers team as their own and established a new base of operations in Section 102 of the often sold out Danbury Ice Arena.

Section 102 is perhaps the most well-known collection of sports in the UHL. Actions by these fans include blowing the "Horn From Hell" and waving a body bag at the opposing teams.
