Be advised that the BC Lions office at BC Place is now permanently closed and has been relocated to the club's Surrey practice facility located at 10605 – 135th Street. BB

Any idea if this move is because of renovations @BCP or a cost cutting measure due to the economic downturn, or ...?
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

On the Lions website it says you can check out merchandise. Does this mean that the Lions have a team store there now? Or is it the same as before, a few items on display behind the receptionists desk.
