Shi zi Mi gave me an idea. We have LOTS of Lionbackers.com that would love to be season ticket holders if they just lived a little closer to the stadium.

So just how far away from BC Place Stadium do you Lions fans live?

Go to http://maps.google.ca click on "Get Directions". Put in your address and in the "destination" address put in "BC Place Stadium, Vancouver, BC" and it will tell you the distance (plus give you driving directions) you are away from BC Place.

Post the distance (mileage or is that kilometreage??) in here.

LFITQ - 669 km (about 8 hours 22 mins)

56 kilometres or 54 minutes (HA!). It seems Google Maps hasn't factored in game night traffic. A more realistic estimate would be 90 minutes.

14.9 km (about 21 mins)

It didn't give me a route I would normally take, but the time is close.

12.6 km (about 21 mins) - apparently google maps has never tried to get on 2nd narrows at rush hour.

Although for weekday games, I do work right next to BC Place and can walk there is less than 1 minute
