The Hockey "Riots"

Of course this isn't New news, as it happened in either 2002 or 2003, but I discovered this video the other night. I list both years not because I am bad with remembering years, but because this type of rock n' rolling happened two years in a row...after the University of Minnesota won the National Hockey championship.

Living in upstate New York at the time, I was only able to read about this online, hear about it from friends, or see the national news only airing the worst chaos and tallest flames. Despite the obvious violence that happened in Dinkytown that night, this particular video highlights, for me, precisely how mundane a lot of the "activity" was. In short, the Dinkytown streets were riddled with a lot of dumb kids standing around.

But I must admit, I find the "interview" with the one blondish kid kinda fascinating.
