This makes sense.

I've experienced 3 Chinese New Years while living in China and it is almost undescribable the noise level from firecrackers/fireworks for about 30 minutes each side of midnight on Chinese New Year.

The Chinese believe firecrackers/fireworks scare away evil spirits and they use them extensively for weddings, openings of new businesses,etc.......
I'm curious then -- does this fascination w/fireworks also exist in San Francisco, whose Chinatown is even larger than Vancouver's?
Yes, there are huge festivities and parades in San Francisco involving firecrackers during the Chinese New Year.

And this year, the Canucks have a home game against Nashville scheduled on Halloween night. For those of you who have attended a Lions or Canucks game on Halloween: Do many fans attending dress in Halloween costumes?
I'm saving the face paint thing for Nov 12. As for dressing up on Halloween night, I'll be at the Preds game and I'll be able to give a first hand report........................

:twisted: I have been busy putting together my Halloween Costume for the Bomber's game. **I won't be in a football related costume and won't be in black & orange, so no grief about missing team colours puhlease** :wink:

It should make for an extra fun tailgater to have a few differently attired Lionbackers around, meaning other than the usual Lions' wear.

Going by the thread thus far, it looks like we have the following in on Halloween Costumes for the 28th Tailgater & Game:

Charlene :thup:
Vanessa :thup:
Tommy :thup:
O'Shea :thup:

Any other "creative" Lionbackers up for a change wardrobe for this TG/Game?? :cr:
Charlene

The people that aren't dressing up in a costume for the game on Saturday are....




LOSERS!

Yes, that's right. And dressing up in Lion's stuff does NOT count! You have to dress as something you wouldn't normally dress up as!

Them's the rules, i made them. Follow them! 8)

heehee :wink:

I'm bringing candy and chocolate for people who wear costumes!

In light of Halloween, an article on Vancouver Canucks superstitions.

http://www.canucks.com/theinsider/defau ... =5&id=1695
祝加拿大加式足球聯賽不列颠哥伦比亚卑詩雄獅隊今年贏格雷杯冠軍。此外祝溫哥華加人隊贏總統獎座·卡雲斯·甘保杯·史丹利盃。還每年祝溫哥華白頭浪隊贏美國足球大联盟杯。不要忘記每年祝溫哥華巨人贏西部冰球聯盟冠軍。
改建後的卑詩體育館於二十十一年九月三十日重新對外開放,首場體育活動為同日舉行的加拿大足球聯賽賽事,由主場的卑詩雄獅隊以三十三比二十四擊敗愛民頓愛斯基摩人隊。
祝你龍年行大運。
恭喜西雅图海鹰直到第四十八屆超級盃最終四十三比八大勝曾拿下兩次超級盃冠軍的丹佛野馬拿下隊史第一個超級盃冠軍。

And in other news ...

A guy at a Lions game was arrested for impersonating a police officer... Or was that the police were impersonating him?
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??
