I've heard of teammates getting into it with each other in the locker room, but who knew the announcers go at it too?

That's because the two broadcasters apparently got into a physical altercation following Tuesday night's game, according to The Athletic's Katie Strang. The details are scarce at the moment -- it's not known what sparked the altercation or how the two will be disciplined -- but Matt Shepard and Kirk Gibson replaced the normal duo in the booth on Wednesday. Impemba and Allen reportedly had separate travel arrangements back to Detroit.

Does she have a comb over?

This story reminds me of that scene in "The Naked Gun", when the whole stadium, even the announcers, were fighting.
