Best Answer

During the men's gold medal hockey game in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, the crime rate in Canada went down almost to zero, because virtually everyone was watching the game. Exactly the same thing happened in 1972 during the hockey "Super Summit" series between Canada and the Soviet Union.

Immediately after the games, people flooded into the streets and the crime rate soared.
