Braehead ice area (home of Glasgow Clan) in Glasgow is one for Scotland, SSE Arena in Belfast (home of Belfast Giants) is another and Cardiff Devils' Wales National Ice Rink is another. Hope that helps.

Right now, negotiations between Turner and Paramount have been mostly leverage to scare off Bain Capital and other entites trying to buy them out.
1: I understand why they'd want to do this. Asset consolidation, synergistic opportunities, Tom and Jerry staying on UPN. But what I want to know is HOW.
2: Oh, this is easy. Just have Yum! Brands ask for the other Disney anime in stock, like Kimba the White Lion, Tenchi Muyo, Evangelion, and Maya the Bee, because that's clearly enough to satisfy their ironic cravings.
3: Sounds good.
4: Yes! This is fantastic.
5: Oh shoot. If this actually happens, then whichever network picks it up should consider making its return a cornerstone of the lineup.
I hope the parmount turner merger is shoot down by the federal trade commison anti trust divison. The merger would make things too olgipolic.
Oh.......
Well, I guess it could work and I see specifically why you chose Turner and Paramount.
Okay, this might be a little to idealistic.
Nah, go into more sports promotions. Or possible ties with Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon or other kids networks.
Nice.
That's great!
Please let this happen!
Honestly, i'm indifferent to this. With the Suns and Wranglers winning their respective championships in 2007 ITTL, all that winning would have satisfied me enough in this or IOTL. AZ might want to trademark "State of Champions" should the D-Backs win however.
Oh yeah, and @OldNavy1988, why would Bain Capital want to buy Turner and/or Paramount out?
Mainly to dismantle whichever one they get ahold of.
Paramount and Turner are basically holding merger talks to keep each other out of Bain's hands.
Question submitted by @Mitch!
There’s also the reveal that Billy Ray Cyrus almost turned Hannah Montana into a one-season wonder, as he joined FART to stop his daughter, Miley, from being sexualized. What led Billy Ray to think someone from The Jim Henson Company was looking to sexualize his daughter?
Answer: Billy Ray became aware of what the now-defunct AEG TV was churning out with Zoey 101 and was concerned about the way other networks would portray the characters Miley would play both on Hannah Montana and in future projects.

Ok, but why would Bain dismantle the companies, and why would Microsoft even dream of selling Paramount?
Oofff.......
While I could understand his concern, what he did was still unneccesarily disruptive...
Okay. When compared to AEG TV's portrayals, I can understand why and how Billy Ray would be this overprotective of his daughter, and I also really respect his love and care for her.
But at the same time, did he really need to join FART? The least he could have done is be more proactive in the production of the series on his own terms.
True, but Billy Ray was part of the reason Henson imposed strict rules for the conduct of child actors' parents/guardians after repeated incidents involving Bridgette St. Pierre while her son Gus was working on Clarissa Explains it All.
IOTL he sits on the board of the Parents Television Council...or did...I'm not sure if he's still there as of December 2022 IOTL. This year, Billy Ray bullied his way into the writer's room.
Anyways, besides SBC having buckled under FART's pressure, landing the Ninja Turtles at Disney in '89, there have been other incidents.
In 1991, the original Big Nate on NBC was a pioneer in early LGBT representation on SatAm programming. When FART had a predictable meltdown, NBC wisely ignored it.
It was FART who tried to intimidate Hollywood from giving Greg Rhodes a second chance after he got clean from his heroin addiction in the early 90's.
ITTL, FART was also instrumental in stirring up the fire flap that almost got Beavis and Butt-Head canceled. Although, MTV still trimmed fire references out of some early episodes while others like "Stewart's House" and "Comedians" were taken out of circulation until they each resurfaced on Adult Swim in recent months.
In early 1994, when Blance Boudreaux ran away from the Kricfalusis' Simi Valley home around her 14th birthday, FART ignored the fact that she crashed on a few foster home couches when police refused to send her back to John K and Bridgette.
That same year, when Warner Bros. was being crucified over the third act of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, FART made several threats towards Siskel and Ebert when they both gave the film Two Thumbs Down over the reveal of Lois Einhorn's (Sean Young) true identity.
And in just the past year, FART has been trying to bully the NHL into reinstating TMZ's locker room credentials. Last season, a TMZ employee was caught trying to shoot video of Tiffany Disney putting her pants back on after a diaper change in a walled off part of the backstage area at the Staples Center during her Mighty Ducks' 5-3 loss to the Los Angeles Kings. The LAPD quickly dragged said TMZ guy out of the arena in handcuffs. Because Tiffany is well respected among the rest of the league's owners, Commissioner Gretzky swiftly revoked TMZ's locker room access for the forseeable future.
