So...i wandered to a pub in Surrey Bc to watch the Argo game on weds. The place looked nice, almost an "upscale" pub, it was called "The Station".
The bartender was a nice fellow, he came over to take my order, and at this time i asked him if he could put on TSN so i could watch the game. He was happy to. I will say that the 30 or so TV's in the place had the "score" on, or some UFC repeat stuff.
It was kinda funny, cause when he changed it to the Argo's game, about 15 or so of the TV's switched, along with the one in front of me.
This is when it got interesting, some big drunk dude, and his pals were sitting at the table directly behind me (he was obviously evesdropping). This guy stood up, marched right over to the bartender, and demanded that EVERY TV be put on the "whitecaps game".(Im sure he wasnt a soccer fan)
WOW...what a big "hate-on" for anything and everything Toronto...needless to say...i egged this dude on, saying he should watch the Argo's game. I may have even let it slip that Toronto IS the center of the universe.
As argoholic has said before, what a strange mentality out here. This guy was ready to fight, angry that the Argo's were on TV in "his" bar.
Cant wait to go back there for the next game..hehe..
