Well that's a shame, to be honest though I wasn't even watching

Friend of a friend of mine lives in the DT area, probably close to where **** went down.

My god man.

So wait, the only thing keeping the Canadian people at bay all these years was the fact that they held the cup?

That stuff is nothing new. In america I remember hearing about an NBA team losting, and the people of that down started rioting and looting.

I know it's nothing new, it's just so disappointing.

Sports riots are nothing new, unfortunately. Hell, this isn't even the first time Canucks fans rioted after losing like this. The first time was in 1994 when they lost to the New York Rangers.

The only other sports-related riot I can think of is Oakland fans back in 2002 when the Raiders lost to the Bucs in the Super Bowl. It had to take flash-stun grenades, rubber bullets and tear gas to break up that mob...and it went on for 50 city blocks!
