Jackson and Duplantis with the symbolic bully of honor
It was no coincidence that the US-American officially opened our new home with a symbolic bullseye of honor immediately before the start of the game. A great and touching moment, also for the record-breaking coach of the German Ice Hockey League. The legendary duo received the puck from the hands of top German Formula 3 talent Tim Tramnitz, who is part of the Red Bull Junior Team.
In his 18 years as a coach in the DEL, Jackson has coached a total of 1072 games for Munich, the Eisbären Berlin and the Düsseldorfer EG, more than anyone else. He won five more championship titles with the Eisbären. As an active player, the former NHL professional won the Stanley Cup twice with the Edmonton Oilers.
Armand Duplantis: An Olympic champion in the Olympic Park
At Jackson's side: Red Bull athlete Armand "Mondo" Duplantis, another legend of his sport. The 24-year-old is currently the best pole vaulter on the planet. It was only in August that the Swede became Olympic champion for the second time in Paris with a world record height of 6.25 meters. Only a short time later, he improved his own record to 6.26 meters.
