As the men’s Olympic gold medal hockey game between Team Canada and the U.S. went into overtime Sunday, tens of thousands of fans in downtown Vancouver stood in agonizing anticipation.
Just off the intersection of Granville and Georgia streets, crowds crammed together to watch coverage through department store windows.
At the corner of Burrard and Robson streets, fans were glued to raised TV screens that were, for some, half a block away and barely visible. A sea of red jerseys, red shirts, red body paint and red hair dye coloured the crowd.
