So baring a last minute cancellation because of Covid or something like that, I got my ticket for the Friday, October 1st Bomber game at BC. My first CFL live game. Even got a good deal on the ticket. Looking forward to seeing the Bombers live for the first time. Flying up to Seattle for work the first part of the week and driving to Vancouver for work the second half of the week before game night. Anyone else going to be there??
You’ll have lots of invisible friends to talk to in pretty much every section. Don’t get into a shouting match with any of them or security will drag you away to a rubber room and you’ll regret those twelve beers you had in the first quarter.
Maybe get up and move around just before half time. At IG Field part of the fun is exploring the stadium and sampling the food. They might have a standing room section overlooking the field in BC with small ‘sports bar’ tables where you can mingle near one end zone or maybe both.
Don’t forget the 50/50 draw. Half the pot goes to a good cause.
I was all set to go to Vancouver for work and the game, then my local sales rep that I was supposed to be working with got sick and we had to cancel our trip. I will miss my first game after all… Damn.
Very sorry to hear that, would have been exciting. Hopefully things work out in the future for you . When all is closer to normal maybe plan a vacation in Canada and get a game in. All my best to you.
Good try usc4dav. Don’t stop trying. If the opportunity arises consider a visit further west to a different venue. The closer you get to Winnipeg the crazier the fans become.
Thanks for the responses. I might be going to Vancouver in November. if not, I plan on getting to a game next season. In the meantime, I still get to watch the games in the states!
