Super Bowl Celebration Riots Don't Include Jaywalking

If you don't use Twitter, one of the trending hashtags is #howSeattleRiots, and it's basically poking fun at the politeness of Seattlites following their Super Bowl win. Here are a few of the tweets I saw:

How Seattle Riots - The Ballard edition: Warning...contains images of responsible recycling and public displays of caring
Drinking a craft beer straight from the bottle instead of using a glass! #HowSeattleRiots Cheers!
People spill Starbucks lattes on their MacBook airs. #HowSeattleRiots
By starting a crowdfunding site for party damage... http://www.gofundme.com/6ni2ic #HowSeattleRiots
Using the number 2 flush for number 1 #HowSeattleRiots

Then I saw this video. Even during the chaos of the Super Bowl celebration, Seattle refuses to jaywalk.
