- ... that the 2011 Vancouver Stanley Cup riot (rioter pictured), which took place after the Bruins beat the Canucks in the Stanley Cup finals, was the second time a riot broke out in Vancouver after a Stanley Cup loss? Source: "The scenes of hooliganism and destruction in Vancouver after the Canucks' loss to the Boston Bruins in the seventh game of the Stanley Cup final on Wednesday are a case of deja vu for those who remember June 14, 1994. That was the night riots broke out after Vancouver's Stanley Cup defeat to the New York Rangers." [1]

article is recently promoted to GA, long enough and within policy. Hook is short enough and interesting. QPQ not required as they have less than 5 noms. Photo appears appropriately licensed and sourced. Earwig popped up some high percentages, but mostly due to quoting and similar section titles. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 20:23, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
