Latvian hockey

May 08, 2008

Halifax is totally blown away by the Latvian presence here for the IIHF Men’s Worlds.  I am a Canadian and I always believed that we, Canadians, are the most loyal and supportive hockey fans anywhere in the world but I have learned a valuable lesson this week...I AM WRONG!!  The Latvian supporters have come out by the thousands and have put us Canadians to shame with their drums, singing and never-ending support for their country’s national hockey team!   I think Canadian fans are more concerned about coaching and   criticizing from the stands instead of being boisterous and loud and   cheering for the home team.   Looks good on you guys...GO LATVIA!!!!
