Your assumption would be incorrect... lol. Of age is an understatement, but my taste tends to lean toward sour apple martinis or sapphire & tonic. :yes:

The Dome by far! I love being with all the fans! My favorite memory of the CFL was my 2nd year as a season ticket holder, when they won in OT in the WDF! The Fans were going Crazy!

I end up missing more of the game at home dealing with kids and preparing the snacks than I do in the Dome.
Those damn food and beer lineups at home can really get to you eh? 8)

You know, if you had one of those mini beer fridges in the basement it would really reduce the time in the beer lineup ... :wink:

Rather silly question if you ask me. ALL sporting events are better live than on TV.

I HAVE to watch football at the stadium, a definite MUST!!! If I can't go to the game, I am one GRRRUMPY gal! Just ask the Hubby :lol:
Hockey is a different story. I prefer to watch at home rather than at GM Place.

I went to a hockey game once. I never knew who had the puck, or even if there actually was one. sigh.

I knew I shoulda qualified that. Then again watching the swim portion of the Penticton Ironman from an Okanagan beach in August can't be all that bad, nor the Hawaiian Ironman down in Hawaii in the fall. ;-)

The Ironman in Penticton is a fun event. The town gets caught up in it and the race atmosphere is much better in person than on TV, even though you only get to see a small glimpse of it as the competitors go by.
