Just in --- a news story claiming the old Empire Stadium fields are unfit for football due to seagull poop that makes it healthwise unsafe due to staph infections. The Lions may have to play their games on Cypress Mountain where there is no danger of snow-outs with the only problem being for one half one team will be going uphill. Apparently the fan seating has now been solved and events can be held on Cypress Mountain. A good choice of venues by the Lions brass. Good thnking Wally , better a slush-out than being pooped out! :rockin: :cowboy: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :oops:
Yes for sure. Even our VP today said “This is a big (expletive) deal.” If you can’t laugh at that for one reason or another you better see a doctor about perhaps your constipation. :thdn:
Obviously you have never lived in Vancouver.... otherwise you would know that it does not take more then 200 cars to completely clog the archeic trafic system that goes up to Cypress Mountain...
The Olympics got away with it because only 0.00001% of the people who actually attended Olympic events were from th province of BC... and thus the other 99.99999% of olympic spectators had no problem siting around for 4-6 hour waiting to catch buses up to Cypruss in otherwise closed roads and an otherwise shutdown city....
Don't believe me...just believe the media rteports...I only live here.
-dupsdell- don't forget your PLEASE and thank-yous instead of PLAESE and INTELLIGANT! :cowboy:
Ah, I gotta go I am too POOPED.
Welcome back everyone. Can't wait to watch a game in the rain and muck outdoors in Vancouver. Maybe the Leos should move indoors and try arena football at the cow place the Agrodome at the P.N.E. It smells like a horse barn anyway.

All that matters in this thread is Empire Field is where old Empire Stadum used to be. History in the makin and Edmonton is first up; exhibition or what ever................. :
Because if it is, for about $1.00/sqft they could apply an enzyme to the soil (completely natural) that eats poop. It's used to treat contaminated soil following sewage spills all the time.
...I think Cypress Bowl would be a great venue....fits right in with 'Bowl' games...and all of those hay bales they dragged up there for the olympics will make a great field of play...Might be a little sloppy but not as bad as what they play in edm. on.....
