I think the entire Rammer clan got one each. When I entered the stadium at like 720, they still had some down at entrance off the Cambie Bridge.

This is the first I have seen of the Geroy Bobbleheads being only for fans 12 and under. I am glad my son comes to the games with me but this is WILL NOT go over well with everyone else.

Also... I take it most of you received the invite for the season ticket holder survey. Some very interesting questions covering just about everything.
If memory serves me right the Damon Allen bobblehead a few years ago was for kids 12 and under. BB

Your memory is correct, I almost felt sorry for the young Rider couple who attended the game, as I had four bobbleheads and they had come early for the give away.

What a load of crap! I really wanted one of the Geroy bobbleheads and was even planning on asking for that day off specifically so that I could go early to ensure I got one.

That goes to show how stingy Rogers Home Phone is to give away only 3,000 bobbleheads when in Seattle, 25,000 bobbleheads are given away at various Mariners game day promotions. I remember when the first bobblehead doll was given away at a Mariners game, many people even camped overnight.

I don't think parents would trust their under 13 year old kids to camp outside BC Place overnight.

Repeating my earlier point, I wonder how the under 13 rule will be enforced on November 3. I'm sure there will be many 13, 14, and 15 year olds claiming to be 12.

A reminder for all you ladies to pick up your giveaway:

Saturday, September 15 vs. Toronto
Game Sponsor: RONA
Ladies Night - the first 3,000 ladies through the gates will receive a free pink BC Lions eco-friendly tote bag, in support of the game's Lions Share partner, the BC Cancer Foundation.


Last year at this time, some of you lamented on missing out on the pink scarf giveaway during ladies night. So be sure to get there early if you want your pink tote bag.

On a side note....I wonder if young girls qualify as ladies with regards to the giveway. If not, then at what age does RONA set regarding whether a young woman qualifies for the promotion.

Good idea, we could use some drag queens in the audience.

And if you also wanted that Geroy Simon bobblehead at the last home game, I'm sure a young man like you can think of a way to disguise yourself as a 12-year old.
