Two guys in Canada robbed a beer store and one of them was dressed like a hockey goalie.

Most Canadian robbery ever? Maybe not, since they weren't very nice about it.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police released video of the whole thing. It happened in the Canadian province of Manitoba at around 3:30am.

Interestingly enough, the man wielding the hockey stick wasn't the one to break the glass door so that they could get in.

Even more interestingly, he was wearing a full goalie outfit, minus the mask, which seems like an oversight in the event of a robbery.

The police report points out that it's kind of odd that he's wearing the number 17. Traditionally, most goalies wear the numbers 1 or 30. This tradition derives from back when players were assigned a number based on their position. Goalies were number one and when subs were added they were number 30.

Perhaps the weirdest part is the that the stolen beer was Budweiser. You'd think it would be either Molson or Labatt's.
