I am not sure how well known this is outside of Vancouver, but after losing game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals a bunch of people went insane and started rioting. There is a ton of footage of it circulating around, but I really like this video (originally an advertisement to come to Vancouver for those that don't know).
So just how well known is this incident outside of Canada? Post in the comments.
Hockey fans are something else
ReplyDeleteReally scary stuff man
ReplyDeletepretty nuts, eh - guess those Canadians really take their hockey seriously
ReplyDeleteI'm from Canada, I am a bruins fan so I heard about it a lot.
ReplyDeleteAh sports, meat heads and beer.
ReplyDeletei saw it on CNN and i hated the fact that the reporter kinda compared them to religious extremists.
ReplyDeleteon the other hand ...the Canucks should know that losing is part of the game too and accept their defeat (even though it's like the 3rd time already?)
it's all over the news here but played down. That video is freakin hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI've only seen it on blogs, but I rarely watch the news, so it might have made it here to Sweden unbeknownst to me.
ReplyDeleteThis hasn't gotten onto the news in my area at all. Although we have our fair share of crazy football fans, ourself.
ReplyDeletePeople investing a lot into other people. Wouldn't know how, or why, but it seems to happen.
dude sweet vid. I had no idea this was even going on so thanks for keeping me informed.
ReplyDeleteThey talked about it quite a bit on the news here in America.
