The York Ice Arena has gone viral.

Or at least a video of it has.

A YouTube video titled "Crazy hockey Dad" shows a man walking up to the protective glass surrounding the rink, hitting it with his hand and shattering it.

The video had nearly 800,000 views as of Friday morning.

The incident occurred at a girls' youth hockey game last weekend during the annual Ladies MLK Jr. Classic tournament in York. Play was stopped to clean up the glass.

Rink officials told the York Daily Record the man who shattered the glass is from Florida and will have to pay $245 for the damage. He is also banned from the arena, according to Eric Menzer, president of the York Revolution baseball team.

York Ice Arena, 941 Vander Ave., is owned by the City of York and managed by the York Revolution.

Police were not called to the site at the time of the incident, Menzer told the York Daily Record.
