Curious of the impact of the big crowd for the regular game attendees. No doubt there was someone sitting next to you.

I assume longer lineups and more congestion entering and exiting but maybe PavCo has that figured out to not be an inconvenience. Kudos to the staff for ramping up and making it a success. Good to see the system tested at that level of capacity.

It will be interesting to see how many show up for Edmonton which is probably going to be a good game.

Initially I wondered if it was my "cookies" setting, but even when I accept them all it makes zero difference. Still the blank white page. Ah well, win some / lose some.

How's it working for you tonight Ernie? Looks like it's getting updated quickly sometimes within as little as 3 or 4 seconds.

I've all but given up, Hambone. Thanks for asking. I continue to get nothing--just the blank white screen. One of the things I most miss are the boxscore stats. but I've found the Sportsnet provides that particular format too, so I go to them. Thankfully for some things there are options. But I remain perplexed with Game Tracker. Everything else works, for me, just not Game Tracker. They're like a ghost of themselves for me--nothing but white space! Again, thanks for asking, and I'm happy it works for you.

I'm sure it's not an easy job with a noisy crowd and limited time to get their messages over. She no doubt reports to someone who is either telling her to perform that way or who can coach her to do it differently. I think it's not a good things for fans piling on when these people are just trying to do their best.

They must be a way for her to get her message across without "shreiking".

As I "piled on" the young in-game announcer from the Calgary game, I must say that I thought she was much "better" on Thursday. Yes, she was trying to amp up the crowd, but she did it without "shreiking" or "shouting". Much improved!!! and thanks to that, it made my game experience more enjoyable.

Sasha was much better Thursday night. Glad FanServices took my complaint seriously

As an aside, unlike how lots of Canadians are immigrating to become American citizens, there is much less the other way around. Back in 2016 when Trump was voted into office, was there a lot of exodus in Americans moving and possibly immigrating to Canada? Not at all. And if he's voted into office again later this year, will the same thing happen? Not at all.

As such, it's example in which an American has taken Canadian citizenship which is what Dave Dickenson did today:

That said, I wonder if he renounced his American citizenship.

My belief is certainly not at all as he wants the best of both worlds - similar to how how most Canadians successfully immigrated to the USA will retain their Canadian citizenship in case they have to return for any reason. And those who actually do renounce their Canadian citizenship only do so because of political reasons with the best example of that being Ted Cruz.

Hi Robbie.

DD became a Canadian Citizen back on May 7 when this pic was taken. He is actually a dual citizen. Let's keep this thread strictly football related, not quasi-political.

Thanks!
