Canadian Hockey

Full story and pictures click here.
After losing game 7 at a score of 4 - 0, the Canadian fans or simply any Canadian citizen as seeing that if the stereo type are true that all Canadians eat, breath and sleep hockey took to the streets to express their outrage at losing to a non-Canadian team. To add insult to injury, a team from a country that is still waking up to the realization that Hockey is a professional sport.


Even when an American team wins there is a large gathering of people celebrating with little to no damages. The fans of the losing team just drink their sorrows away. Granted, to lose by by that margin is embarrassing but not enough to do what the Canadians did to their own city. American have had riots but those were related to social injustice like Martin Luther King Jr.s death or the LA riots from cops pulling over a man and beating him. All sports are entertainment but to destroy an entire of a city over losing a game is nuts.
