In Fiction
A billboard advertisement for a fictional 'Eastern Hockey League' appeared in the movie Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan. The advertisement featured a prominent 'old style' masked goaltender, to which Jason Voorhees looks confusingly at, then stands next to, highlighting the resemblance. This movie was released in 1989, however: at least eight years after the previous Eastern Hockey League folded.

Famous quotes containing the word fiction:
“The purpose of a work of fiction is to appeal to the lingering after-effects in the reader’s mind as differing from, say, the purpose of oratory or philosophy which respectively leave people in a fighting or thoughtful mood.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“The beginning of human knowledge is through the senses, and the fiction writer begins where human perception begins. He appeals through the senses, and you cannot appeal to the senses with abstractions.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
