Victory parade on RU - WWOOOOOWWW

LiannaSilverwind: I have asked what does 8th May mean for us, EU players, in this thread -> http://forum.worldof...ay-mean-to-you/
If you have a few minutes to read other people answers, you can notice that for many people it's not any special day. For Russians 9th May is extremely important holiday, ultimate Victory Day. Therefore why are we surprised EU special for 8th May is not as spectacular?
