Fuck that guy and fuck the system that allowed him to be created and fuck the system that didn’t arrest him for doing it.

Stay Classy, NHL Fans

It was one guy. I’m sure nearly all hockey fans (and people in general) say fuck that guy. And fuck you.

Bstr,

Actually, throwing a banana in this specific case had everything to do with race. Proven fact for decades – non-blacks have done that towards blacks for a long, long time. Pathetic, but no surprise.

Shitty thing it’s happened in hockey rinks elsewhere before. And wouldn’t be surprised if we hear about another incident 20 years from now.

I don’t think Vancouver had anything to do with race or intolerance.

I was just painting broad strokes. Both incidents are embarrassing to Canada.

Vancouver, now this

I don’t think Vancouver had anything to do with race or intolerance. It was just a bunch of idiots making trouble.

This is pretty bad though. I’ve heard it done at European soccer matches, but not here.

However, “racism is dead” according to pop culture.
