Mayors throw down goods for playoffs

Vancouver better beat Chicago — the mayor has beer on the line.

Gregor Robertson is betting two cases of Granville Island, some cherry stout from Storm Brewing and a case of Molson Canadian that the Canucks can shoot down the Blackhawks in the second round of the NHL playoffs.

Robertson is also wagering a case of Happy Planet Juice, some local chocolates, tortillas, dried morels, smoked salmon, 2010 gear and some umbrellas.

For his part, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley is betting three cases of Red Felt Beer, two cases of sangria and two bottles of red zinfandel. He’s also wagering some hotdogs, cupcakes, Red Hots and some Chicago 2016 gear from the city’s Olympic bid.
