Ever since Fatburger opened their restaurant on Denman, becoming the first Fatburger in Canada, they were a part of the Orange Card program. But since the first year their participation as the "Official Burger" BC Lions has been going downhill:
-Year 1 gets you 20% off food and drink
-Year 2 gets you 15% off food
-Year 3 gets you no discount as Fatburger left the Orange Card program
Anyone else disappointed?
I love Fatburger because they have good prices, quality food and friendly service. They don't cook your food until you order it and your pop has unlimited refills at the self-serve fountain. Plus they had huge burgers that were a rung higher than fast-food on the quality scale. A double Kingburger is challenge for anyone to finish.
The 20 then 15% off food was the extra incentive for me to go out of my way to Denman and enjoy a quality, filling meal. Now they've opened a location by Stadium Skytrain, the purrfect place to enjoy a pre-game meal.
Just as I'm getting ready to enjoy a season stopping by my favourite eatery before games the Orange Card goes out, sans Fatburger!
I'm ticked off to see a company feel they don't get enough benefit out of the Orange Card program and also annoyed because I loved eating the Official Burger of the Lions!
Anyone else got a Fatburger tale to tell? I was impressed they offer beer there now, which completes the menu. If only they supported the Orange Card...

That's too bad about Fatburger. I see they are still being listed as a Preferred Partner restaurant.

What's the point of the program if ST-veterans "assumed the Lions stopped doing it?"Rick James wrote:i never recieved an orange card this season. i assumed the Lions stopped doing it.
I don't know, maybe there are going to be some missing pieces with over 20K subscribers.

Bummer about Fatburger not being on the orange card.
I haven't even had one yet
I noticed yesterday that there is a new branch right beside Ricky's at Stadium station, purrfect for me coming in on the train.

Bighill is Badass
Ricky's restaurant has also cancelled the card. Darn that was useful when I had to take grandma out to brunch. :(
