This was in the Daily Caller's 'Sports' section, but I figured that it should go here.

Canadian sex shops see spike in sales due to NHL lockout

1:34 PM 11/27/2012



Apparently, there are only two things to do in Canada: watch professional hockey and have sex.

Since the National Hockey League lockout situation is currently preventing our northern neighbors from watching dudes on skates knock each other’s teeth out, the only thing left for them to do is get it on.

According to some Canadian retailers, the sale of sex toys and lingerie have spiked since there is no hockey to watch, the Toronto Sun reports.

Vinay Morker, owner of Hush Lingerie and More boutique in Edmonton, Alberta, told the Sun that he has seen a 15 percent boost in sales since October when the professional hockey season should have started.

“We’d be gearing up for [hockey] now, but there’s nothing so I guess we need to find some better ways to spend our time,” Morker said. ”When [Edmonton] Oilers fans, mostly guys, have to break their routine of seeing every game, they have more time. And there’s nothing better than spending it with your spouse or girlfriend.”

Hmmm . . . We never really had any Canadian girls up at my college . . . :rant:

Canadian women?  How do you tell the difference?  Moustache sizes?
