I couldn't even come up with a title for this blog, let alone express how crazy Montrealer's have gotten since all this HOCKEY craze has started!!
Not only has our gas gone up to 139.4, but the people have gone red and blue!!
Everywhere you go...people are wearing Montreal Canadian t-shirts. You drive down the road...everyone has flags on their cars.
I walked into school the other day and it was hockey shirt day, since it is a school that must wear uniform it looked really different. What they do is bring in two dollars to wear a different shirt. That money is then donated to a cause in our area.
It is a pretty amazing thing to see actually, but the rowdiness in the headlines after games is simply embarrassing. Sarah and I both got on the wagon and bought t-shirts also...we have sat home and wore our shirts and watched the game...but we have no intentions of going out afterwards and setting cars on fire!!
When the city needs to call in the RCMP, and over 700 officers are patrolling downtown with a helicopter to boot...I think that maybe it isn't about hockey at all. It is truly embarrassing to live in this city with the horrific behavior. Proud of the team...not of the fans.
