Again, I'm dismayed this even needs to be discussed:

EVERY fan base has bad apples. That is so simple and obvious, it should go without saying. However, it's undeniable and blatantly obvious, there is a much larger percentage of these types in Vancouver's fan base. There is really no denying it. From sucker punching to police car burning to twitter threatening... it's just not debatable.

I'm not sure why you even felt the need to bring up there are some Calgary fans like this. That happens with every fan base in every sport. But not to the extent it happens with Vancouver fans. Not even close.

My problem is when security isn't on top of the problem. Whoever handles Saddledome Security missed the drunk yahoos sitting behind me on Saturday night.

Never been in a arena fight but being a row below is never a position of advantage.

Then, the Flames guy rips the jersey off over the Leaf guys head, and tosses it 10 seats over and 3 rows back. Leaf fan has no shirt underneath (wtf) and police escort him out shirtless. Flames fan gets high fives all the way up as he's escorted out.

Disturbing how many Leaf fans there were wearing Leaf pajama pants or sweat pants with jerseys.

As for the game, solid all over the place. Jokinen unlucky not to have 1 more, Stajan could've had two. Phaneuf extra slow...Tanguay and Iginla on the penalty shot play made up 3 strides on him in both cases. Good to see Hagman find the net, and Kotalik was finding space to be able to get shots away too.

You know what i think?
i think, that you think, that you're batman, the usher.
saving saddledome goers from themselves.
the thin grey blazer line.
i don't like to use the word hero
but you sir, are the greatest hero that ever ripped tickets at the dome.

so you are hyper sensitive to who's doing their job properly and who isn't doing their job?
bully for you

so you're more interested in the behavior of the fans than the game itself?
ziptiddy do

i would ask you not to fabricate a sense of danger at the saddledome, just to suit your overblown sense of duty.

it's like listening to paul blart talk about how gangster the mall is.

1: I never said I liked the Flames. There are plenty of other fans who support opposing teams.

2: I am not an usher. Originally when I joined I was. The Leafs brawl you are referring to was ridiculous and I was embarrassed that someone didn't do their job correctly and someone got hurt simply because she wasn't in her section.

3: I'm in the camp of "I should be able to feel safe and feel like I shouldn't have a problem cheering for whoever I want" and something that should be extended to every fan that enters the building. Sorry if that concept is odd to you.
