I got a preliminary itinerary email on Sept. 4 saying a permanent itinerary would come the following week but nothing has arrived yet. Has anyone else who is going heard anything? And who else from here is going?

For those interested in this in the future, here is what the itinerary looks like.
Game starts at 8 p.m. in Regina so we are going to be at the stadium good and early on game day. Never been to Regina, only Saskatoon. Anyone recommend any bars or restaurants or ones that you won't get killed in wearing Lions gear? Also wonder if the pre-game sideline experience is getting pelted with Pilsner cans LOLFriday, September 28
10:15 am – Meet at south terminal
11:15 am – Flight departs for Regina
2:20 pm – Arrive in Regina
3:30 pm – BC Lions team walk thru at Mosaic Stadium
5:30 pm – Check in to Ramada Hotel & Convention Centre
Saturday, September 29
2:00 pm – Pre Game meal with the team at the Ramada Hotel & Convention Centre
4:00 pm – Leave for Mosaic Stadium
5:00 pm – Pre Game sideline experience
8:00 pm – Kickoff
11:00 pm – Depart Mosaic Stadium for airport

Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

I just emailed the Lions an got back a reply that a final itinerary will be sent out Monday.
I also pointed out in my email that the 100th Grey Cup train will be in Regina that weekend, so we will be getting either a private viewing or our schedule will be tweaked to get there during their limited public hours. I will be bringing a Flip video camera that also allows the capture of stills so there will be plenty of unedited vids and pics.
