Unfortunately, the WDF wasnt our biggest attendance night of the year!AC/DCrocks wrote:this is my take120dB wrote:What will it take to get 60,000 for the Western Final?
last season wdf was 55,000
seems like there is a good solid core of 30,000 to 35,000 per reg. season game
and that number will keep rising as the season starts to wind down as long as the leos are winning.
so the wdf will have close to 60,000, especially with the next game being the Big one.
In a city as big as Vancouver is ,including the lower mainland, island, and other outlying areas, I'm surprised we don't get an average of oh,
45,000 to 50,000.
The halftime shows are always Dink at Lions games.David wrote:It still sticks in my craw at how poorly the WDF was promoted. It was as though Management had poured all of its available budget into the Grey Cup game (which on some levels was over-promoted) and decided, "to hell with the appetizer, let's splurge on the entre?." I'm not denying the Grey Cup was a perfectly executed first-class event. However, it merely served to shine a light on the inferiority of the West Final as an event by comparison. Everything from the rather dull print ads leading up to the big game to the well-meaning but frankly, rank amateur rinky dink half-time show.
And don't even get me started on the pricing structure at BC Place. You know, for an organization that seems to constantly stress the importance of crowd noise at its games and its effect on the outcome, it sure doesn't appear go all out to put bums in the seats. :no:

I recall the Beefeater's band was the standard half time show when I went as a kid (and you weren't born yet). At least there seems to be a bit more variety now.Lions_Fan_4_Life wrote:The halftime shows are always Dink at Lions games.
Well then I must be bad luck for the Lions half time shows, cause they've sucked &@!!$!pinkfreud wrote:I recall the Beefeater's band was the standard half time show when I went as a kid (and you weren't born yet).

C4L, you forgot the most important staple at Lions Halftime shows;Canuck_4_Life wrote:There will always be 2 staples at Lions Games:
1)Salute to Veterans
2)Salute to Amateur football
I don't get that either. There are plenty of highlights to showcase, such as Geroy Simon's record long bomb in the WDF. It was in the WDF right?ThreeTimesOneMinusOne wrote:Speaking of marketing, I don't get the new season tickets ad not even using footage from last season. It's the same ad they used before last year.
