[West Coast Blue Fan]

I'm interested to see what one of those fan rings look like. Anyone have a pic?

[Black99GT]

also it says here that season ticket holders will be able to obtain a BC Lions 2006 Grey Cup Championship FAN Ring...it says that the information regarding the exclusive opportunity will be sent along with your season ticket package in May.

I thought of calling them up and asking how much it would be if I brought my own plate.

[Shi Zi Mi]

If supper is $175, I hate to even ask what the ring is going cost !!!

There was an article in today's Province that the ring will range from $500 to $1500. We'll just have to wait and see.

For those of you who will be attending, please answer the following questions:

#1.
Will the players who have left the team like Ryan Thelwell and Bobby Singh be in attendance? I'm assuming that they will be busy at their new team's training camps. Singh was one of the designers of the ring.

#2.
Repeating a question that I posted here:

Take note of who among the non-players will be receiving Grey Cup rings. Obviously, coach and GM Wally Buono will receive a ring, but what about all the others on the football operations staff listed here:

And it's likely owner Braley and President Ackles will receive rings, but what about the other front office staff members:

Sportsnet showed a close up of the ring. It looks very impressive. The players should wear it with pride.

Those rings are so huge.........

when Dave puts it on his finger, he outweighs Jamarcus Russell.


Those rings are so huge.........

if Tyrone Williams' ring catches the sunlight, it could start a forest fire.


Those rings are so huge.........

they don't come in a box, they come in a coffin.
