There have been numerous improper references to ZAMBONI in connection with an unfortunate incident in Rochester, NY on Wednesday, October 14th. The machine seen on fire in the videos which were shared online was not manufactured by the Zamboni Company. http://ow.ly/30dh50BTV66

The pink fluid trailing it looks like hydraulic fluid. Maybe the leak caused the fire.
