1770 - British troops killed five colonials in the so-called Boston Massacre
Is that, like, the time when the Bruins blew that big playoff lead...?
Nah - you dummy! The Boston Massacre took place way before that day of infamy... !
... one of the events that led to the American Revolution.
Uh... when the Red Sox lost to the Reds?
