So you know some beer-fuelled Vancouver Canucks fans went mental and tried to rip up the city when their team lost the Stanley Cup on Thursday. I am still wincing in embarrassment and wondering just what happened to those laid-back West Coasters. Anyway, Twitter provided some context and the appropriate amount of ridicule.

AntoniaZ RT @justinpitcher: Dear Vancouver, don't feel bad. Next week, kids in 3rd world countries will wear shirts saying you won the Stanley Cup.
