Hockey Fever!


The Vancouver Canucks will play the Boston Bruins for the Stanley Cup beginning on Wednesday. Boston Pizza, a Canadian restaurant chain (known as "Boston's" in the US) is supporting the Canucks in a unique way. Story here.

Starting Monday, all restaurants will receive Vancouver Pizza banners to hang over their signage. They will also get Vancouver Pizza stickers to cover up the unsightly Boston Pizza logos on takeout containers. And staff will be instructed to answer the phones "Hello, Vancouver Pizza."


LOL, I love it!

  1. LOL! My husband's been a life-long Boston fan; his current profile picture for his FB page is Elijah wearing a Bruins jersey.

    He's trying not to make too big a deal of his loyalties, but we know a number of people who seem to have a less than healthy obsession with the outcome! If you don't hear from me for a while, we may have had to leave town in a hurry... :-)

  2. Today I saw a couple -- a man and a woman. She had a Canucks jersey on. He had a Boston jersey on.

    Anybody know a good marriage counselor?

  3. I was just a kid when the Bruins won the Stanley Cup twice in the early seventies. I was imprinted; I guess I will always be a Bruins fan.

    All I have to say is... it's about damn time they win it again.

    And if that victory has to come at the expense of the NHL franchise in the hometown of my dear friend Fay...

    ...well...

    ...I'll get over it!

    ;)
