Proof that nothing brings this city together like Habs Fever:
I was walking from work to the train this evening, and I had my coat open with my Habs T-shirt showing. This white-haired lady obviously in her 60s walking in the opposite direction grinned at me, said "Go Habs Go!" and held up her hand. It took me a second to fully process this highly weird and yet awesome moment in time, so all I had time to do was grin back before we high-fived as we passed each other and continued on our way. (Not even sure if she was french or english--"Go Habs Go" is a universal greeting that knows no language barriers!) It truly made my day. I wish I had the guts to do that to random strangers!
Don't let the stories of the rioters (the police have said that the vandals and violent ones were an organized group, obviously just taking advantage of the street party to cause trouble) sour you on the hockey spirit of this city. There ain't nothing like it!
