Canadian football? Really? That was my attitude till one Fall day
during a stay on Mayne Island up in the Gulf Island chain in BC.
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. ;=+))

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.
