Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was loudly booed while she was announced for a ceremonial puck drop at a hockey game Tuesday night in videos shared online.
Hochul was invited to the New York Rangers match at Madison Square Garden as part of a “Women’s Empowerment” event sponsored by Chase, according to the announcer.

“Tonight, we’d like to salute Gov. Kathy Hochul, the first female governor of New York State,” the announcer said over a booing crowd. “Here to drop tonight’s ceremonial first puck, a champion of women’s rights and leader of the great state of New York, please welcome governor Kathy Hochul.”
Hochul entered the rink wearing a Rangers jersey as the audience booed for around thirty seconds, and the crowd began to cheer as soon as the two hockey players alongside Hochul were announced. (RELATED: Lightning Goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy Makes Absolutely Outrageous Save Against The Blackhawks)
