The ones that go to Canucks games and harass the opposition.

I know that in some areas they use dyes to detect if septic fields are seaping into waterways.
I'm not sure if any of this dye was being used in the area, but the fact that it was a flouresent green that went away after a while sounds a lot like that's what it was.

That's hilarious. Can we create a similar dye to turn the Bow River bright fluorescent red on evenings with home games?

Dunno about that, but Chicago turns the Chicago river green every Saint Patrick's Day.

That's the best idea I've heard in quite some time. This should be done for playoff home games.
