  • Once upon a time there was a wonderful place called Canad Inns Stadium.  We must be careful not to speak about this time too loudly, but the memories of such a place warm us in this cold and horrible

    Anyone who thinks they get to decide who a real fan is and isn't... based solely on how many home games they attend... all other factors be damned... ought to give their swollen head a shake. One day

  • The funny thing is IGF is 100x more comfortable to attend events at than MTS Place. The place does not get its credit in the city.

Well, glad you mentioned June. June can be nice for sure. However on the flip side, I've seen some crappy ones in my life both in Calgary & Winnipeg. We're also talking weekend games. People have cottages & they're at them in June.  In Calgary, tens of thousands of people head out to the mountains in Banff, K Country or SE BC. I also find June is a busy month for a lot of people. Going to a Bomber or Stamps game isn't a priority.

Yes, I'd like to see Thurs games in June.  You're always battling cottage country in Winnipeg but its only a fraction of the total population of Manitoba that needs to show up for the games.

I thought having a Stamps game on the Sat night of the August long weekend was crazy but that's TSN. They said 27,000 showed up but I know McMahon Stadium & there's no way. More like 23,000. I was in Winnipeg & I watched the game at my In Laws. I know the fan support for the Stamps right now in Calgary is luke warm after what happened the last 2 Grey Cups.  They wouldn't get a bigger crowd for a game on a long weekend on a Sat nite.
