Re: 2017 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

$80 for a pair? Geez Lions have to do better than that. I know this was 11 years ago but this was also when tickets were actually scarce. The difference between the Ackles and Skulsky eras: October 21, 2006 - Canadian Football League (CFL) - B.C. Lions News Release (Vancouver) As the BC Lions close...

Re: 2017 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Disappointing to have such a low turnout for a home opener against a division rival. However, it's nice to shuffle over to mid section and have nobody in front, next to, or behind you! Glass half full. Good job on the half time entertainment - a low budget rapper with the felions flanking.. People w...

Seat relocation

Got a baby now, so moved from midfield to the corner of the end zone. Row AA, so no stairs, a little extra leg room, quick ins and outs, and mainly to keep costs down, as I imagine we'll be sometimes leaving early or not able to even show up. So question: anyone have season seats in this area? Not s...

Re: Let's pack the dome for the WSF ! WSF ticket sales thre

Ah man, just looked on the ticketmaster seat map... there are soooo many seats available. Even like primo 55 yd line aisle seats! WF? more like WTF. Oh well, it is what it is. We'll enjoy the game anyways. My first season as a STH and i really enjoyed going to games. I imagine it would be even bette...

Re: A New Podcast for Lions fans!

I gave it a whirl the other day. My thoughts.... I give the CFL guy props. He knew his stuff and has some sound/reasonable arguments. And really, the anti-CFL guy didn't completely rip the product on the field, more just the lack of star power and quirkiness of the league. My question is, why do we...

Re: 2016 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

Of course the WSF is scheduled the same time as a Canucks home game (1:30pm). So now I have to choose (hopefully). I suppose its mostly beyond the team's control, but surely they could have lobbied for a 4pm start. Then you'd get many from the Nucks game, coming over nicely warmed up and buzzed. Ins...

Re: Lions popularity and coverage is heating up all across c

Better marketing. For instance, the CFL has a long tradition, more history than the NFL. I don't see the league or the team exploiting this important element. NHL does a great job of this. More lions community stuff - get them out there. Market the hell out of Jennings, Bighill, Solly, The FELIONS! ...

Re: CFL under fire for blown call....

There are two possible explanations: incompetence or bias. And it seems like the latter, given how clearly it was a fumble after looking at the review.

Re: Converts: 1 point or 2?

Maybe i'm more of a purist, but i think the 2 pt should be reserved for desperate comeback type situations. I like that they moved back the kick, so perhaps they could move back the 2 pt attempt as well. Actually, shouldn't they be the same? maybe both from the 10 or something. Then the fake comes i...

Re: 2016 All Things Lions Marketing & Promotions

I remember around 20 years ago ( I was 16 or so) and you could buy tickets at Safeway for $10. I would buy a pair and bring my little brother. No we didn't spend a fortune at the concession, but it was two butts in seats, and two life long lions fans in the making. They absolutely price out the casu...
