Reason #846 why you shouldn't riot: A flash-bang to the balls

Really, Canada?

Frankly, I expected more from our friendly, Molson-loving neighbors to the north.  But, following the Canucks' 4-0 to the Boston Bruins, fans went on a rampage in downtown Vancouver.

Now, besides it being wrong, illegal, dangerous, yada, yada, yada, you really shouldn't riot because, well, you just might catch a flash-bang to your nutsack.  Like this guy...



Actually, that was the best save made by a Canuck all night. Had that been Luongo, it would have gone right through his legs.

But hey, if you don't get your genitals blasted off by police projectiles, you really want to try to capture the moment of your Canadian white-trashiness with a good picture.

Check out the guy trying to get his girl to take a pic of him in front of the flaming car starting at the :10 second mark in the vid below.  When she gets the shot, she jumps in for a couples photo.  Ah, memories.  Boy, there's one for the wedding video!

And I never knew it, but Canadians sure must hate port-o-pots.



But why on earth would you be on top of one. Like this poor sap...



This last one is horrible as rioters attack a man trying to stop people from looting (3:06 mark)

Images from The Big Chill

Here are a couple of images I got from The Big Chill Hockey Game today in Ann Arbor. It was a very fun and memorable day. I am very glad I was able to attend.

A couple of hockey players jumped up to touch the banner in their skates.

Stealth Bomber fly over.

Regardless of the sport, I never get tired a full Michigan Stadium

View from the North end of the stadium

Celebrating Carl Hagelin's second goal. Michigan leads 4-0 at this point.

The best part of the whole day was watching the team skate over to salute the student section. Very cool.

From Deep Behind Enemy Lines: M Hockey at Tosu

UPDATE:  Ohio State - 3, UM - 2  OT


Tosu tied it up with :10 seconds left in regulation after Michigan missed an empty net goal twice by inches in closing minute.

Sigh.

MZone reader Surrounded in Columbus just sent the following pic from the M/OSU pre-game skate in C-bus.

If he sends more, we'll put 'em up.

Go Blue!
