Duncan Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 As the Boston Bruins beat the Vancouver Canucks last night in the Stanley Cup series we, as the rest of Canada, witnessed with broken hearts and total shame on the hooligans probably hopped up on adrenalin and Molson Canadian destroying that part of a great Canadian and international city. Not only was their physical damage done but the reputation was up in smoke as well and all this coming from a place that just last year hosted the Winter Olympics and a Temple was dedicated near there. I think I speak for the rest of the Canadians who post on here that what we saw last night and again on the news and other media outlets during the day that it is not a reflection of what makes Vancouver an awesome city and it certaintly isn't reflection on the rest of the great country of Canada. So, as a proud Canadian who loves his country I apologize
Mars Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 bahRabid, intoxicated and angry sports fan rarely do represent the rest of the world.
Mola Ram Suda Ram Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Can you imagine how crazy things will be there in Vancouver if something serious happens, like if they ran out of food? Look what they did over a hockey game.No worries Duncan. I don't think that what happened represents Canada less Vancouver. I think it was a minority.
MorningStar Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 I do the same thing after I attend the opera. 1
Duncan Posted June 17, 2011 Author Posted June 17, 2011 The Molson made me do it, eh?I think it helped it along!
Jeff K. Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) We have the Dodgers fans, and the Oakland Raiders fans, you have nothing to apologize for. Edited June 17, 2011 by Jeff K. 2
emeliza Posted June 17, 2011 Posted June 17, 2011 Unfortunately we even get that at one of our college bashes now and again here in Iowa where everything is pretty tame. 1

Too bad it spilled over afterwards. 1
