So many sports traditions have been begun by Vancouver fans...
Advertisements [?]
The wave, was started by Vancouver Whitecaps fans (though fucking assbag Seattle Seahawks commentors say it was seahwaks fans).
All them white towels you see waving at sports games... where started by Vancouver Canuck fans.... see in 1982 Vancouver was in a Playoff series against Chicago. The ref was being a dink, and Roger Neilson put a white flag on a Hockey stick in a sarcastic symbol of "We surrender!" The next game in Vancouver, everyone was waving white towels. (Heard many versions of this story in school, thank you Canadian education system).
More recently, I've notice more and more NHL clubs play "Where the streets have no name" as their coming ou of the dressing room tune. Again, this was startd by Vancouver. So like, can't you fucks get your own traditions?
