Booing every player from Boston that hoists the Cup. Oh yeah did I mention the 40 or 50 beers, soda and water bottles that were tossed on to the ice hiiting players . One large soda hit a cameraman as he was shooting the Cup being presented to Chara. I mean hit him dead on and sprayed soda everywhere ..including the holy grail itself. I saw THE CUP geyt hit twice with waterbottles.
Oh yeah it gets worse..then came the fires and the riots. The beatings and the stabbings. The idiots throwing debris at the police line. Tear gas and explosions everywhere. The city was on fire and my ass was caught right in the middle and was lucky to find a hotel close by. I watched as they looted many stores, burned cars , one guy even burned a Canadian flag.
Vancouver fans, you are a bunch of asshats and may the hockey gods NEVER EVER reward you with a CUP. To the few who had nothing to do with it I feel sorry for you.
Your team, your city and your country has been embarrassed beyond belief. See you in another 15 years or so next time you grobble into the finals.

If you were really there and actually listening you would have noticed that the fans inside the building were classy as can be during/after the game.
They booed Bettman because he is an ass-hat, but aside from that Milan Lucic got a deafening cheer from the crowd, Tim Thomas was choked up in the post-game interview because of how loudly the fans cheered for him, and every Bruin that grabbed the cup to skate around was cheered.
The real fans stayed for the entire celebration and showed exceptional class and character. The ass-clowns outside that had PRE-MEDITATED plans to riot no matter the outcome of the come are the ones who should be reprimanded.
