ESPN introduces its newest 30 for 30 documentary film, I’m Just Here for the Riot, premiering Tuesday, June 4, at 7:30pm ET on ESPN and streaming on ESPN+.

On June 15, 2011, the Canucks’ Game 7 Stanley Cup Finals loss to the Boston Bruins sparks a massive riot in downtown Vancouver. Police cars are overturned and burned, windows are shattered, stores are looted, and waves of young people are caught up in the mayhem. I’m Just Here For The Riot chronicles the aftermath of an event captured on hundreds of cell phone cameras; the rioters are outed, shamed, and see their lives altered forever. From the mob mentality in the streets to similar vengeance in the online hunting of those responsible, it is a dark moment in the city’s history – one that raises deeper questions about fandom, violence, and the shocking power of an angry crowd.

I’m Just Here for the Riot was directed by Vancouver-based filmmakers Kathleen Jayme and Asia Youngman, who were in the city during the infamous riot. Kathleen and Asia began working on this documentary to gain an understanding of how this shocking event came to be.
