I escaped just in time...the match started at 5 and at 6 I was off to Seattle. These guys were HAPPY and not angry when the Canucks lost....LOL that was crazy

^^ What's funny is that there would have been a riot regardless of whether the Canucks won or lost. Both of course would be in ecstasy. The whole downtown of Vancouver was reeking of alcohol hours before the game even started

Seattle

How'd you like it? You're off to a great start in North America with Vancouver and Seattle.

Not very different from Vancouver actually...just that the roads are wider (and so are the people  ). The weather is pretty much the same and downtown Seattle is exactly like downtown Vancouver. Will be visiting the place often as its a lot cheaper to buy stuff from and its more multicultural as well from what I observed. I like the city

Cheaper? Wouldn't have guessed that.

Well, I've never been to either city and I lived in SF for 23 years.

Atleast 30% cheaper!
