Weave Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I'm curious if there will be alot of negative reaction when news of this gets out. And I'm betting the drinking age in Mother Russia is lower than 21.
thesportsbuff Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 You can drink legally in Russia at either 16 or 18, I can't remember which. But yeah, I hope the media won't try to turn this into an "OMG THEY WERE DRINKING UNDERAGE?!! THOSE DISRESPECTFUL RUSSIANS!!" type of ordeal. They won the championship and they deserve it haha.
Robviously Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I'm curious if there will be alot of negative reaction when news of this gets out. And I'm betting the drinking age in Mother Russia is lower than 21. The drinking age in Russia is 0+.
Sterling Archer Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Won't someone please think of the children?
X. Benedict Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Heck if I was that age and just won.....I'd be partying just as hard.
SwampD Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Heck if I was that age and just won.....I'd be partying just as hard. I didn't even watch the game and I was partying that hard.
Eleven Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I think they were drinking before the third period. They looked drunk when they were celebrating (I posted this in the thread), and let's face it, they came out a little looser during the third than one normally would from expect a team that is down 3-0 in a title game. I would not be surprised if they had a shot or two during the intermission. I'm not kidding.
carpandean Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I may be wrong, but in Russia, isn't Vodka considered a acceptable alternative to baby formula?
inkman Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I may be wrong, but in Russia, isn't Vodka considered a acceptable alternative to baby formula? They can get vodka right from the teat.
Stoner Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 I may be wrong, but in Russia, isn't Vodka considered a acceptable alternative to baby formula? Yes. Myrtle and I, of course, raised our brood on Mountain Dew.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Yes. Myrtle and I, of course, raised our brood on Mountain Dew. So the PA clan has a history of green discharge from their netheregions?
Two or less Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 They will now fly home Friday morning... i wonder if they are going back for round 2 tonight? lol
spndnchz Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Some of these stories about them being asked to leave the plane breathe a little sore loser. Sure, they want to get home, but who books a flight within twelve hours of the end of the game? Didn't you expect them to party a bit? IMO Canada's view of this poor. Certainly, if Canada had won and been on a plane a few hours after this monumental achievement, they would have sat quietly with their hands folded, each wrapped up in his own calm and mature reflections on the day's events. Gimme a break - the ONLY reason this is "news" is because Canadians are hungering for justification for the Russian's renewed position as the Villains in our collective hockey psyche. -out, or should I say oot?

What does them getting drunk and not being able to board a plane have anything to do with Canada? I am not understanding where you are going with this...
spndnchz Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 What does them getting drunk and not being able to board a plane have anything to do with Canada? I am not understanding where you are going with this... I'm talking about the differrence in writing the stories. Many Canadian news reporting "drinking on the ice" and "booted from the plane", while non Canadian's r writing "the coaches came on the ice with Crown Royal ,after the players left, to take pictures after the scoreboard was lowered" and "asked not to board the plane".

That Aud Smell Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 the adam's mark has to be sweating bullets given the media's coverage of multiple under-age drinkers being served at its hotel bar. footage of the celebration the nys liquor authority will not allow itself to be embarrassed by turning a blind eye to this sort of coverage. and liquor revenues are a big piece of the revenue puzzle for any hotel.

As far as booking a quick flight out of town, I think today is Christmas in Russia (and other Orthodox-oriented countries); that may have had something to do with it. Of course, they may not have thought they would be playing for gold, either, much less winning it. A team not being allowed to board--or being asked to leave--a plane because of drunkenness is news no matter who does it. It was news when our USA Olympians drunkenly trashed some Japanese hotel rooms, too. There probably is some sore-loser stuff going on, too.

Good for the Russians. I was once at a quiet bar with 10 russians. I've never seen so much booze slammed in such a short period of time. They had polished off 3 bottles of Jack in an hour. I received many embraces. They were all guys, but comforting nonetheless. A message to my friends at the Days Inn: Эй, ребята, большие сиськи по улице T Рик Талли-Хо.

bunomatic Posted January 7, 2011 Report Posted January 7, 2011 Apparently when they got back to the hotel after the game they went straight to the bar/lounge and there were a couple hundred Canadian fans there when they arrived and the Canadians gave them a standing ovation. The players started signing their sticks and giving them to the people in the bar and then started downing vodkas. Former g.m. Doug Maclean related this story today on am 1040 in Vancouver in an interview..
