I'm gonna go to a few games this year simply because the games will be outdoors. BC place is a horrible venue for sporting events and concerts, the sound dynamics are bad and the place is a too big to create any atmosphere.
I can't wait for the sun, if it ever comes this year, hotdogs and watching jackson throw hailmary's as that's all he does. casey printers i'm cautioning you, you better not be a princess this year. go lions

One of my clients bought me season tickets, I think I'll go check it out for the stadium more than the for the Lions, I just can't interested in the CFL for some reason, more an NFL guy, but the stadium looks pretty sweet so I'll go check out a game and give the rest of the tickets away at work.

I'll be at the game tomorrow. Hopefully the sun will be shining.
Also have a pair to the Montreal Game on the 16th. Hoping I can get my hands on a pair of season opener tickets as well.

For anybody being afraid to go because it might rain please keep in mind that a good portion of seats are covered. If my memory serves me right last night on TSN they said 40% are covered. Even with that said, going to a game with no cover and just toughing it out being exposed to the elements are quite an experience and fun.

The end zones are not covered and there is no netting, so you can keep the football if u catch it.
Stealthfighter, I work there.
I got some shots with the lions on the field. Today was their first day on the field. Posted via RS Mobile | |

i still say it's retarded that it's only going to be temporary -- that is a DAMN nice stadium if they were to make it permanent. they could do so much with it if they marketted it properly. I know this isn't the deep south US, but just throwing out ideas, they could have a highschool football game of the week (or whatever other field sport you wanted) i would rather my tax dollars go to that than spending $100k on fucking 'VANDU' surveys.
