What do BC Place, GM Place, and the Pacific Coliseum have with regards to backup power in the case of power outages?

Has there ever been a power outage in the middle of a game?
I am almost certain they would have backup generators for emergencies like that.

Not a storm, but a blackout nevertheless.
What were you doing when the outage hit downtown?

Let's just hope we don't get something like this during the Olympics in 19 months.

Let me know when the one that started last month finishes before I get worried about an additional one. This has been a stretch of weather that Vancouver can rest its reputation on. :bang:

It looks like the Grey Cup missed the huge snow storm. This is what Calgary looks like now:
