Hockey tickets would probably double the cost of the trip.

I'm going to Edmonton with my brother. We will be at that game (First ever Lions road game for us, second ever Esks game at Commonwealth.) and we will also be at the Canucks game at Rexall (First ever Canucks road game, too.). Got all my tickets, the Canucks ones arrived 2 days ago from Stubhub (Section 202, Row 36), so everything is all ready. Lions tickets came a month ago or so. Sitting on the 35 yardline, Lions bench side, Section V, Row 8, lower level. I wanted to sit on the Lions side to shout out support. Flying in the day of the Canucks game.
Would love to run into the Lions fan contingent before or after the game, maybe get some pictures. We gotta bring a presence to Commonwealth.
Canucks play the Oilers at GM Place after the football game. Gonna have to catch it in enemy territory.

That is an EPIC road trip, 3x1-1... wish I could afford to do it too!
Needless to say, we expect LOTS of pictures!

Oh I guarantee there will be lots and lots.
I'm not sure exactly how cold it will be in Edmonton, I wonder if they sell Lions toques at BC Place (or even the Bay at Pacific Centre).

I won't be making it after all. Maybe next season.

O'Shea is making the trip. One of her clients is an Esks fans and he's taking her to the game.

For those of you who will be going to Commonwealth, there's still time to enter a contest to watch the game from a hot tub:

The forecast for Edmonton is sunshine, a high of 15, and a low of -1. Should be a great day to watch a football game.
A change of plan for me is that my wife is staying home and I'm going with my oldest son, and will meet up with my youngest son who figures to roll into Edmonton at 9 am coming from the other direction.
So there will be three us to meet up with OS99 and Eskinator and any other people that we can run into.
I'm looking forward to it.

Although the Esk fans may be expecting a loss making it much easier to handle if the Lions get out front.

You guys have a great time in Edmonton!OrangeShoes99 wrote:Just cashed in some air miles to get to Edmonton for the game on October 13th. Will of course be hosted by Eskinator and Ture42. Always a good time.
Should be great weather too.
Say hi to Brian and Linda for us

Unnecessary (you're joking right Phil?). No-one is going to hassle a distinguished gentleman like Gerry at the game.Rammer wrote:Bring a hard hat Gerry.

Also, this isn't Calgary, where they sell beer in cans.
I look forward to seeing my buddy OS99 and getting reacquainted with Gerry this weekend.
Weather is supposed to co-operate as well.
