How will Minnesota Wild fans celebrate a Stanley Cup championship? (layoffs, school)

[mrconfusion87]

I'm a hockey fan and I LOVE the Wild! And I know that Minnesota is arguably the most passionate about hockey in the USA - enough to the point that people riot over an NCAA Frozen Four Championship Title !

So what is your opinion on how people would react and behave if and when they win the Stanley Cup? Any explanations and the like is welcome...

I don't think the celebration would be anywhere near the riots that occurred after the Gophers won it all (back to back). Most of that probably has to do with the drunk college guy stereotype, though. Wild fans (and Minnesota fans in general) are nowhere near as rowdy as Yankees or Red Sox fans. Either way, the Wild are most likely going to miss the playoffs

First, we would have to try and round up all of the monkeys that just flew out of our butts.

Then, we would need to look up in the sky to gauge what threat those pigs circling over head might pose to air traffic.

Lastly, we could act any way we wanted without regard for the normal consequences knowing that being sent to hell would not be quite as bad of a punishment since the eternal fires have been snuffed out.

Let's see, back in what 1978-79 something like that, how did we act?? I remember getting a t-shirt from a friend at school that went to the finals. That was the last time we were there so who knows....
