    Hey Gang, question

    Squish here, some of you may know me from riderfans.com and elsewhere. Long time lurker, first time poster.

    Anyway, I have a gang coming in to your fair city in October for the Rider game on October 24(?), we are also going to try to take in the Oilers/Wild game the night before.

    Just looking for a few suggestions on conveniently located hotels, restaurants, and such. We are likely flying and wont have a car, so access to the trains and areas within a decent cab distance would be beneficial.

    Also, if any of you have any ticket suggestions (other than just ticketmaster) or offers to sell us some tickets, I'm all ears. Looks like there will be 4 of us.

    I guess thats all, thanks in advance for your help, and good luck this Saturday (but not too much ).

    How do you like to roll? Cecil? Westin? Somewhere in between?
    I officially retract my vote for DDS as Prime Minister. He's clearly incompetent.

      One of the downtown hotels would be best as they are close to the LRT which get's you to the Stadium and rexall
      I will not, for a moment longer, support an organization who chooses to cowardly kneel where they once fiercely & proudly stood

        One other suggestion along the LRT line outside of downtown would be the Century Hotel & Casino.....
        Before you insult a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you insult him, you'll be a mile away, and have his shoes.

                    yes..yes it was... my bud's bro got kicked out for tossing shot glasses on the the floor from his seat.. then when the bouncers came to get it, he decided to fight them.. took 4 bouncers to get him out :P

                    not the most interesting one i've been too.. there is one just off Jasper ave and umm 109th or 110th across from Stantech, that my buddies and I went into... some live speed/death metal band playing and i dont think i've seen so much leather, peircings and tats in one place... course the kicker was the 3 lesbians going downtown on the pool table beside us in the back right corner...

                      I didn't realize it was on the LRT line. Beverly Station, I presume?

                          Sobey's/IGA sell Eskimo tickets for $14.99 and they are ALWAYS available. They are in a family section but you can always move to one of the other sections if you wanted to drink and be rowdy... There are usually a lot of open seats in Sec Z and there tends to be a lot of Rider fans there.

                          I hope that our fans treat you well and just remember that not all CFL fans are created equal...

                              You're not talking about the old Gas Pump are you? That place was Cougar-ville.....

                              That's one hell of a kicker (lipstick femmes or butch?)
