Friday night, downtown Toronto. Blue Jays home to Red Socks, 46,500 ish crowd in The SkyDome (Rogers Centre). Next door, and I mean next door, 20,000+ in the Air Canada Centre for a Raptors basketball playoff semi against Cleveland and probably upwards of 10,000 in the fan zone (Jurassic Park, heh, heh) outside. A mile or two down the lake front, the Toronto Marley's Ice Hockey team (Leafs minor league team) are pulling in around another 10,000 in their playoff finals. Downtown Toronto is full of usual Friday night revellers plus a shed load more soaking up the atmosphere surrounding the basketball in particular.
Toronto police just ....... get on with it. Compare and contrast that with West Yorkshire's finest who can't handle two crowds totalling way less than 40,000 on the same day and about 15-20 miles apart let alone 1.5 to 2. The West Yorkshire Police Chief Clown commissioner needs some serious stick in order to get the Clowns into shape.
