The Mysterious Kissing Couple & An Angry Voicemail LOL

I have to admit...I'm a little intrigued by this photo. It's become the most iconic picture of the 2011 Vancouver riots following their loss of the Stanley Cup. I guess media is trying to find out the story behind this. It has an air of high romance to it (in my opinion). The guy and the gal are both comely, look like they're deeply in love, and whatever is happening in their lives obviously takes second place to how they feel about each other while a city burns down around them.

I wonder what's going on here... I smell a Pulitzer prize for the reporter that nails this story especially if it is a good one. Here's a link to an article that tells a little more about it and the photographer that got the picture.

What do you guys and gals think is going on here? Do you think it was staged? It makes me want to write a story set in Vancouver during all this lol. Ice hockey is such serious business.

If you go out this weekend for Father's Day and happen to go to the Alamo Drafthouse, don't talk or text on your phone cause they'll kick you out. This is an actual voicemail they got from one such angry customer. I laughed my ass off:
