Only time will really tell. If we see 10k in the stands and a packed house at half time, its the show. If we see a low crowd in the seats and it tapers off as the year goes on they gave a ton of tickets away. JCon and Bubba Zanetti 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 nah, that won't happen... not for kickoff anyhow. Some may peter out depending on how things are going for the Leos, but at kickoff it'll look pretty full. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebusrankin Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Gates will be locked until after quarter one. Armed guards will be posted and told to shot if anybody tries to escape. Noeller, bearpants and wbbfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries, you will have plenty of time to listen to Suitor try while a football game plays and they ignore the game completely.

Referring to Fajardo's passes? I’m not talking about the investment lost. I’m talking how bad it’ll look for the fan base. Imagine if you are winning a close game at home and your crowd is leaving in mass. Or if 5x more show up for the pre game then the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie Posted June 7, 2022 Report Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) Not gonna lie, that's pretty fn cool and huge to get one republic out for a cfl game. That's better than the Grey cup half time acts normally Bombers should bring in Slipknot or something for a game.

Ugh, yes, lower bowl only. Capacity 28,0000. Still, if they can get 3/4 of that out, that would be great momentum for them. For reference, the White Caps are averaging 16,405 this season. Up from just over 10,000 last year (Covid). Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the lowlands want to get out to white caps games. I don’t think they care about the Leo’s. But it’d be great if the new owner can turn that around.

Rod Black Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Lions game, say 15,000 extra peeps in seats, 10 beers each at 10 bucks a brew, guzzintas, carry the naught, that’s $1,500,000 extra revenue! Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
