Looks like Casey Printers will be about 3000 miles from BC Place.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

4 hours 18 minutes from Kelowna driving that is by automobile. Less by flying on a plane.

9 hours and 20 minutes. I'm closer to Commonwelth and Mcmahon than BC Place. I hope that changes in the next year!

That's it; if you can make it in 3 hours, then you had better drive next time.

Best I can do is about 5, remember? Then again, I'm an old fart.

An hour from Mission? Maybe at 4 AM. :wink: You had better budget 90 minutes for that trip, or more depending on the time of day.

I live 20 minutes (walking distance time) i'll be walking to my 2nd game this year, such a nice treat after 20 years in Coquitlam driving out through the traffic.

It seems like all the people downtown who got rid of the indy and stuff should be living out in the suburbs and all of us suburbians should be downtown. I represent my Lions jersey i bought at the 2004 west final every Lions game.
