I lived in Vancouver for 12 years. They easily have the most crappiest, most fickle fans of any city I've ever been to. I've never looked around a hockey game and watched so many people sip white wine spritzers while at a sporting event.
If the team loses 3 games in a row, everyone in the city wants the head coach fired and half the team traded. If they win 3 games in a row, the whole city has their Vanucks jerseys on.
There is a reason they lost their NBA team. The fans have no real commitment to the team, and just see it as a casual social event.
I loved living in Vancouver, but it sucks for sports fans, and snobbery.
