Around the CFL 2023

agreed, as a business owner this is exactly what I do. You have to give your employees some freedom but you also have to give them some guidelines to work within.

while I agree... Jones isn't exactly a normal person

This is how slow CFL news is right now. Dude's trying to predict who'll be the most outstanding canadian 5-10 years from now.

I know there's some EE fans on the island. For those interested in TD Pacific tickets will go on sale to the general public on March 28th. It will be a 3 day event with a festival running Aug 29 & 30 down at Ship Point in the Inner Harbour and the game Aug 31.

CHEK the local TV station has a early access promo code that started today if you wanna get tickets early (I got mine). Promo code is CHEKKICKOFF

It looks like there are only single seats left available between the goal lines.

I'm a Lions ST holder and already was hooked up as a result; almost identical to my BCP seats I'll be sitting between the 45s 15 rows up behind BC bench. I tried accessing the link to where I could by more as a ST holder mostly out of curiosity to see what was left but it wasn't working property. I'm up in the air as far as attending. It's looking bleak for picking up the usual contract work I get thru the summer. I might take advantage of that and the fact BC has only 2 home games (including TD Pacific) between July 13 and Sept 13 and head out on a bucket list cross Canada road trip. I reckon I'd be somewhere between Montreal and Toronto on the way home about the time of TD Pacific.

Yeah, I opted for the visitor side. I am top row of the old grandstand, right if front of the broadcast booth. I wasn't sure what type of seating they were going to offer in the temp bleachers on the Lions side (bucket seats? metal benches?), so I stuck with what I knew. And although it will probably be a typically beautiful late August day in Victoria, it's nice to have covered seats just in case.

An FYI for Elks fans on the island, lower mainland and other parts of BC who might be planning on an Elks game in Vancouver. I just received an email from the club. Single game tickets will go on sale April 30th.

oye that sucks, hate losing talent

TSN has posted their CFL schedule. Looks like they are televising two pre-season games, Montreal @ Ottawa, and Edmonton @ BC, both on Friday, May 31st.

i am trying to look for a confirmation, but there minor rumours out there that TSN+ will broadcast the remaining pre-season games, utilizing the stadium video feeds. Hope this is accurate.
