Singing the Blues, Crushing Avalanches and Terrorized by Bananas

After reading Nucks Misconduct’s assessment of the Canucks last night, the Yankee had me reaching for a razor blade and pondering my wrists. His fury is infectious, but ultimately I decided he was over-reacting (as usual!). After all, how much can a Canucks’ fan complain? The team is 6-3-1 in the last 10 games, the only games the team has lost since February 24th. And after suffering beheadings, dental surgeries and eviscerations to survive and win that Dallas game, I’m just glad they managed stand upright on their skates for three hours in St. Louis.
Of course, tonight is different. Tonight is the Avs and if the Canucks lose that match-up in such fashion as last night’s effort, it would indeed be painful and anger-inducing. I’ll keep the razor handy (in case it’s necessary to sever the TV cable, not my wrists) but remain optimistic.
Randomly, I found myself on Jimmy Fallon’s website today, and this old video below (which I’d never seen before) jumped out at me.
It features—honest to Sundin—a giant banana on a rampage, terrorizing Florida Panthers fans:
I hope this starts a trend. Rampaging fruit is simply comic gold.
