Stereotypical hockey fans, who don’t exert the energy to think too hard. Idiots. Friends with Chadd and supporters of his bully tendencies. JESUS: Male, 20s/30s/40s. He’s just trying to enjoy a tropical island vacation. Grows increasingly frustrated with having his name mispronounced. JAMAAL: Male, 30-40, local islander and employee of Margaritaville.
