There was something on their website as late as a few days ago that said it would be this coming Saturday Dec. 3 at the Surrey training facility. That info has now been taken down, or at least I can't see it. Wouldn't be surprised if there has been a change in plans with the Grey Cup win. Can't see it be any later than Dec. 10. As a season ticket holder there has been no update on this event or even the Grey Cup celebration tomorrow, at least not yet.

After the 2006 cup win all the players jerseys and helmets were auctioned off with the proceeds I believe going to the B.C. Football Hall of Fame. No word on anything like that yet but surely a Grey Cup win and so many all-stars would make those jerseys and helmets extremely valuable and great collector items.

Off the beaten path a bit, but if you want to purchase something that benefits the HOF and are looking to drop money in that price range, perhaps this is worthy of consideration?:

Yes, according to the Lions email, season ticket holders have priority.

I thought that David was banned from purchasing any player jersey's? His record is incredible, so if you see him in line with any, quietly take it from him. TIA.

Haha, I guess we should all be worried that I wear an Anthony Reddick jersey. :shock:

Maybe I need to buy a Jamal Robertson?? :wink:

So they're telling us 12:00pm - 5:00pm. Do season ticket holders get in early as is normally the case?


DH :cool:

I was originally looking to get dante marsh or elimimian but looks like thats not happening haha
unfortunately cant afford to spend that much at this time of the year. I just really don't like the way replica jerseys look
Poorly made in my opinion. Only an authentic will do.... one day
