![]() Imo anytime you invite 5000-100000 people into the city to watch on the "Big Screen" you are asking for mob mentality to be a factor. They was no doubt as there were a small faction of sh*t disturbers who had planned this from the start. Its not the Canucks as an organization or team that are responsible in any way shape or form for this. This is also on Vancouvers politicians and organizors heads imo. I would not be surprised to see the business's sue the city for the sh*tty planning of this event. They didn't learn in 94 and as the old saying goes, "Those who do not learn from their mistakes are destined to repeat them". The majority of the fans were fine, but like mindless "Lemmings" a few followed the idiots and escalated the situation. This has happened in other cities before and will probably happen again, next time the Canucks make a run for the cup lets hope the city gets smart and tells the people that can't afford tickets to watch it at home or in the bars and stay the hell away from gathering in the city. As a Bruins fan I am very happy my team won, I am disgusted in what happened on the streets of Vancouver after.

![]() No those don't look like Van Fans at all?
Keep bringing those sweet pics! I'd be willing to bet most if not all the rioters were Vancouver-ites & there co-conspirators were all from the central coast & Island. As a kid playing hockey on the island the point of the game & sportsman-ship of any kind was always lost on the majority of the players & especially the crowd. It was such a redneck atmosphere you usually ended up fighting, even members from your own team & afterwards if you did well you'd have to watch your back anywhere you played. Wake the F..k up Van. that's the blue collar mentality your fellow citizens have, with no where to go & nothing to look forwards to, the youth of the working class out there has nothing to lose unfortunately. The riots are created by a socio-economic break down of classes that started 3 decades ago. But seriously it's a super nice place to visit in the summer months. Thomas Kicked ASS! |

![]() This will be one the guys who is not a canucks fan and came to this event with the sole purpose of rioting.
You dont bring accellerants and what is probably a backpack of anarchists tools to a hockey game without an alterior motive. These guys, like the black bloc, wore canucks jerseys to be able to blend into the crowd anonymously after inciting violence. off hand, how many on this board would even actually know how to set a car on fire in minutes? |

![]() I am proud to be a Vancouver Canucks fan riot or no riot. 50-80 thousand people doesn't make it easy for crowd control. VPD did what they had to do. It only took a few out of towner to instigate and we got ourselves a full blown riot, they are probably all hitch hike here from Calgary anyways.
