If I go, I will definitely take a few pictures. However, I'm not sure if it will be worth my time and money since I've already had my picture taken with the Grey Cup several times, as discussed in this thread:

What I will need is some extra incentive to go to that event. For example, if any of the players will be there, then I think I'll go. Or if there are additional trophies that I can have my picture taken with such as the West Division Championship Trophy as well as the two Whitecaps championship trophies, then I will definitely go.

Yeah the Als had the division trophy for their locker-room sale at the Big Owe, why not throw it in at the HOF?

I hope so.

I heard that the Canucks also eventually honoured the Whitecaps at a pre-game ceremony on November 30.

Did any of you attend this event? Since I already had my picture taken with the Grey Cup before, I didn't go to this event.
