GO OILERS GO!

I think the only thing yet to happen on Whyte Ave is looting....[would not shock me]. What a disgrace to our city.

I was having a hard time trying to find some pics.

Those are great. Any of those you?

Now imagine if toronto won the cup.

Yeah seriously. Toronto would be wiped off the map. I can't help but think our little ruckus would be a drop in the bucket in comparision.

They were showing footage on the news from 84. Whyte ave wasn't what it was today. There were a mob of drunks with big ass mullets running up and down the main strip on downtown with cops chasing them down. COMEDY!

I was unfortunate enough to catch the beginning of it on SAT (we had to drive around it). Anyone who heads down to the avenue is just part of the problem in my opinion. Lots of good pics on that site though.

With that being said, I hope the cops get a better handle on things for the stanley cup. There is only so much they can do, but letting the crowd do as they please was only encouraging worse behaviour once everyone realized the cops were going to let it run free. It has been an amazing playoff run and I hope this doesn't spoil it. I am looking forward to one hell of a series!

Cheers everyone! GO OILERS GO!

too funny not to quote

The property damage has been the big thing so far. Violence has been fairly minimal considering the size of the crowd.

Some people getting beat up/random fighting breaking out, getting git with beer bottles [still not too bad considering].

*** There was this article about some old lady who lives nearby, finally got pissed off, went down to give people a pice of her mind, and then the fans spit on her. Not violent but kind of funny in a sad way***

I think the vilionce has been kept to a a minimum because the cops let the mob run it's course without giving the crowd something too feed on. Apparently the riot police wanted to step in to start "banging some heads around" to try and get some control and help the shopowners, and put an end to the property damage.

The cop in charge said no, as this would likely cause the crowd to go into a full blown riot. He has been replaced with another cop in the hopes this is handled better next time. Though I am at a loss as to what would be appropriate.

I seriously hope they tear gas them.

I think they'll (cops) be ready for the finals.

Scoobysnaxx - have you seen any public service anouncements? How often are they on tv?

he'll be back. I think McTavish just said that stuff for carolina's sake. I mean he is standing on his right leg.
