Many people have interesting childhood anecdotes, but Ariana Grande's may top them all.
Grande, whose album Sweetener recently earned her her first Grammy for best pop vocal album, has been a Florida Panthers hockey fan her whole life.
In 1998, a then-five year old Ariana was the first person to be hit with a hockey puck at the Florida Panthers' new stadium.
She would then go on to be struck by a puck during a game again!
Apparently this wasn't an isolated incident!
Ariana has quite a history with hockey.
Her first television performance was singing the national anthem during a Panthers game.
There was also a surprising amount of love for the Zamboni driver's hat!
The magnetism that draws in Ariana's fans seems to work on hockey pucks too!
