Couldn't get a bite of food to go with the drink while the whole inn staff watched the Grey Cup on the bar TV. Until that point I figured all Frostbacks were reticent, emotion-lacking people. Holy **** did I get a surprise. Frightening really when you consider that the border is not fortified. ;=+)) Dave |

Frightening really when you consider that the border is not fortified. ;=+)) We were in a bar in Atikokan, Ontario during a Canada Cup game between Team USA and Team Canada. I knew we were in hostile territory when I gave the bartender a US $20 because I was out of Canadian funny money and everybody started giving us the fish eye. In the second period a team USA guy plastered Wayne Gretzky into the boards behind the USA net and Gretzky had to leave the game. Just as we had to leave the bar. You do not want to mess with a bunch of drunken Canuckistanis. -- Ken Fortenberry |
