So what was Vancouver's excuse when they rioted over their hockey team's loss back in 1994?

Nobody can know how many anarchists were in the mob, but I bet there were many who took advantage of the situation and decided it was time to get free flat screen TV's, xboxes, computers and cameras. Note that the store on the news that was hit was 'Sears'? Anybody know how many book stores were pilaged?

More than 100 had charges laid against them, I don't believe any of them were black but there
were some white supremacist/skinhead types, you are familiar with those types right?

Say it for what it really is a bunch of spoiled brats, who cannot accept defeat, in an adult fashion. They have to act like a bunch of loonatics, crackpots, who can't and won't accept a loss.

People need to freaking grow up, there are winners and there are losers, and people don't have guts to admit their team can lose. Hey i am a huge laker fan, don't get on me for that, i will come right back at ya. They played like a bunch of bums, i said months and months ago, that Dallas was going to win the whole thing. Infact my daughter wanted me to place bets in Vegas, boy now i wish i would have, but i am not a better. I can accept defeat, one team plays better then the other, what is the big freaking deal. I am glad Dallas won, my 2nd fav team.

When adults act like this, what does this teach our children, teaches them, that unless you win, you have every right to act stupid ignorant, and violent.

Bullcrap, this was planned in advance and would have happened even if The Canucks had won.

Was it also planned in advance in 1994 when Vancouver lost and the city rioted?
