Wa-a-a-ay back in the days of old Empire we sat in section EE which the very last section in the northeastern corner, and some nights when it rained (some? Make that most!) there'd be a north wind blowing the rain in under the roof. I can't remember how many times we each stayed comfy & dry in our white plastic poncho with the big Lions logo on it (the mountain lion with its paw on the football).
I'm picturing a special commemorative poncho, maybe with reference to the 58th Season, Empire Stadium, # of Grey Cup wins, sponsor, what have you. The club could even distribute them as a free bonus for season ticket buyers to shut up those whiney *itchers who are too urbanized to sit outside in the elements (the stadium seating will have a roof, for crying out loud! I'm just glad none of them have noticed the posts).
In case Rick is indeed tuned in, just let me say I would drive from North Van to Chilliwack to buy a BC Lions poncho.
