sportsfan0518 Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 A real fan would be wearing blue and green gear. Those guys just went to Value Village.A: Give it a rest man. We aren't criticizing YOU.That's an ironic statement coming from you, considering every one of your posts has been bitching about the Thrashers moving to Winnipeg.This riot was caused by a combination of Canucks fans and anarchists. I don't think regular Canucks fans would show up wearing paintball masks to conceal their faces...the only anonymous ones were the Green Men, and they would easy to pick out in the crowd.It's horrifying at the least. And, from what I read, made it extremely dangerous for people to get out of there.Some people are hellbent for destruction, regardless of the situation.Lets not start a flame war...

FiddySicks Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Yeah sorry, all this nonsense about how the rioters weren't real Canucks fans and about how the riot wasn't caused by the Canucks losing has got to stop. They were Canucks fans. The riot was caused by the game. It's a s****y reality, but it's true. After the Giants won the World Series people rioted. It was mostly younger people, but to say they weren't Giants fans isn't correct. They were rioting because they WERE Giants fans. Sure people will take the opportunity to loot and riot when they get the opportunity, but it's not like a bunch of people who never watch hockey, or as Tank said "who don't know the difference between a slapshot and stickhandling" (or something like that) were sitting in the shadows waiting to pounce once the game was over ready to ruin the time of true Vancouver Canucks fans. They were rioting because they were pissed off bceause their team lost. Supposedly this all started when some pissed off fans started throwing empty beer bottles at the big screens on the street as the game was winding down. Remember now, sports fans can be dickheads too. I honestly don't look at this incident as a reflection of the Canucks fan base. Everyone has stupid fans. But I do see this as a reflection of the city of Vancouver as a whole. Watching video from the 1994 riots and last night showed large groups of people that were dangerously reckless when it came to property, order, and even their own personal safety. In one of the videos posted here the reporter said that part of the riot escalated when some idiot climbed a telephone pole, tried to do a high wire act, and fell. Really? Who's so f***ing stupid that they'd risk their life by climbing a telephone pole with a tin foil Stanley Cup and trying to walk across the telephone wires? Does hockey really mean that much to people up there? Either way, the 1994 riots should've been an indication to the Vancouver Police of what to expect. From the looks of it, it wasn't. Really sad to see from a city that seemingly handled the Olympics so well.Vancouver handled the Olympics because you have law enforcement from all over the country present. I'm not going to condemn the entire Vancouver Canucks fanbase, but still. Jesus Christ people. What about the outcome of a sporting event would drive people to riot? I just don't get it. I'm in agreement with you, this is unacceptable, and it's a black mark on the city of Vancouver. The funny thing is that this is supposed to be one of the most progressive cities in the country. And all it takes is losing a hockey game to transform it into Snake Plisken's worst nightmare. The one thing I will take you to task for is using this indefensible riot to decry those obviously decadent Canadian teams in the name of sunbelt expansion. That's all kinds of weak.For the record, the comment about how sunbelt teams was meant as a joke, as in saying the Coyotes would NEVER act like this after a loss. Joke being that they don't gave enough people who would care to riot. I had smileys properly placed and everything, but I thought the joke would be better accepted if there weren't any. Oh well, you dribble and you shoot. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

TheClevelandHockey Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I feel bad for hockey in general because with what little exposure it got yesterday was overblown by this riot. All of the "LOLOLOL NO ONE IN AMERICA LIKES HOCKEY AND THEIR FANS ARE ALL STUPID" are coming out of the woodwork to mock NHL fans.But I feel even worse for the Canucks fans that not only have to deal with a game 7 loss but also get swept into the giant category this riot created. What really gets me is the "great fan" stuff. It's sad to think of our country as a "Steeler Nation", because that would mean that we're a country of near-sighted inbreds from the mountains that can't speak competent English.Let's go Brownies!You mad because the Tribe is stylin' on you?

The Boston party got overshadowed and it's a shame because it would've done more to disprove the "LOL nobody cares about hockey" crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
