Heading out Saturday to take in some extra festivities, and hopefully another Jets/Bombers winning weekend!! Have fun! I wish I could go again. Enjoy the popcorn!
November 12, 20195 yr Author comment_442611 Purchased yesterday in section 227. Surprising amount of tickets still available. First time in the new building and looking forward to continue being the only team to have won playoff games there 😁. Hopefully lots of blue in the stands!

November 12, 20195 yr comment_442616 I won't be attending. Regina has gotten my 3 strike rule on attending games. I have had some good experiences over the years there but in the last 5-6 years I have had some poor experiences. I like the people of Regina, and if I were younger and looking for a party crowd, I would keep going. However, now middle aged, I find Regina just doesn't have the infrastructure to host events comfortably. I want to be able to stay in a decent, reasonably priced hotel that is near the stadium. I want to be able to get a cab without waiting an hour or hour(s). I want to be able to eat decent food without waiting a long time for a table. Therefore, I will be staying in Winnipeg where all of this can be easily accommodated. For the same reason, I don't believe that Regina should be allowed to host the Grey Cup. I know that the NHL visiting media carved them up for the same reasons I have after the Heritage Classic. Edited November 12, 20195 yr by gcn11
November 12, 20195 yr comment_442623 Regina has definitely never been labelled a party crowd before. Boring AF

I'm booked in a 10 minute walk from the stadium at what I would say is a pretty reasonable priced. I guess if you're going to complain about places being busy, then really really not going for the atmosphere of an event such as this. Do you expect places to be empty? I probably wouldn't want to go there anyways... 59 minutes ago, firekid23 said: we are sitting section 136, where are you staying? we're in 142!

I know the difference between busy and incapable of handling the volume of business. Sooo...enjoy...but I will save my money on Regina and roll the dice that we get to Calgary. I suppose Regina this weekend won't be as bad as the Grey Cups they've hosted but I just won't go back there after two pretty lousy Grey Cup experiences there. If you like looong waits for cabs, or waiting in a restaurant lobby for an hour to be suited all the power to ya.

November 13, 20195 yr comment_442806 anybody know what airlines fly into Regina? hopefully I wouldn't have to sit in the back of a 2 seater, open cockpit, crop duster and land on a grass run way to get there... it's a bit chilly out...

I think all in all it would take me about 4-4.5 hours to get from home to Winnipeg... I went to the Banjo Bowl last year and was planning on going back again this year but had a little accident, lol... my passport burned up in my brand new 2019 LTZ-Z71 club cab Silverado... it had less than 10,000 miles on her... firework incident on the 4th of July... wasn't my fault but still... burnt the thing to the ground! my passport was in the glove box because I had just used it as identification to renew my drivers license... I didn't realize it until August that my passport was gone and it takes at least 8 weeks to get a new one so I wasn't able to go to the game this year... which reminds me, I still need to get a new one! lol...
