The Kings’ decisive victory over the Sharks in San Jose last night was so shocking, Drew Doughty forgot the name of one of his teammates:
It was so unexpected, Darryl Sutter forgot how to talk during his media session.
It was so bizarre, Sharks fans forgot their manners.
it makes me a special kind of happy to hear sharks fans boo their own team

The sharks suck so bad even their own fans boo'd them off the ice.

Sharks fans, I'm sad too, but don't boo your own team. Be better than that. Be depressed and drunk and maudlin, but don't boo them.

Yes Sharks fans, boo your own team! #LAKings bring it home! Time to get on @StubHub & bust out major $$$ for game 6 baby! #BecauseItsTheCup

Sharks fans are shouting, "BOO-urns!"

Sharks fans continue to boo their team. I think they may need some booze themselves

I've never heard the #Sharks crowd boo such. All warranted of course. #embarrassment
— Alex Martinez (@AMart6023) April 27, 2014
Listen to the vaunted fans in San Jose boo as their beloved #Sharks start folding like a KMart deck chair…LOL

Wait did the sharks fans boo at their own team?!?!?

… *Sharks lead the series* *Sharks fans at SAP boo for half the game*
— J.T. Dutch™ (@JTDutch) April 27, 2014
So stunned were the San Jose faithful, they dazedly stumbled out of SAP Center through the gift shop:
“Hmm, maybe I’ll get a Stalock t-shirt on the way out.”
Yes, the Kings’ overwhelming triumph over the Sharks was so surprising, that Kings fans started feeling it was safe to make cracks on Twitter again:
It sure is true what they say about the SAP center… the fans were booing the Sharks so loudly I had to turn my TV volume down

Without Vlasic, it puts the Sharks in a bit of a…um…sorry, I can't think of the right pun/joke for this one.
— Brian McCarthy (@brianmccarthy1) April 27, 2014
Can Pearson skate 88MPH and go back in time to play in games 1 & 2?
— All The Kings Men (@KingsMenPodcast) April 27, 2014
Vlasic hurt? Good thing the Sharks still got their best defenseman, Brad Stuart
— Ryan Dunn (@NotDeadRyanDunn) April 27, 2014
Sharks fans can't seem to figure out if they hate the Kings or Sharks more right now. Can't blame them.

I read this tweet as if a Koala was saying it.
Sharks take a mental vacation in 3-0 loss to Kings http://t.co/mlsVs8rvUC

And I truly wish the article above was actually written by Dan Boyle.
Finally, we end with a riddle for the ages…
So if u put a Ducks fan, Kings fan, and Sharks fan in the same room…who makes it out alive
— F-n Craig (@ibby_09) April 27, 2014
Answer: The Kings fan of course – they simply crane kick the Ducks fan, #ReverseSweep the leg of the Sharks fan, and crack open a TRH-approved Bud Light Lime on their way out.
The last two Game 6's the LA Kings played at home: Stanley Cup clinching win. McFlurry Miracle.
