Another year, another event I don't get selected to attend.

I'm confirmed and will be there. My son is possibly coming with me, but if he doesn't I'll be happy to take someone else with me. PM me if interested.

Got my rejection email. Weird, but just as well as i didn't RSVP to enter the draw since I can't go anyway.

I got the invite and am going... I have 4 season tickets so do I get 4 spots? How does this work?

I too have 4 season seats, but I talked to my rep and it’s only me plus guest.

I guess it depends on the event and the rep you talk to but in the past I was able to get 4 spots to a couple events since I have 4 seats. By default you only get the account holder plus a guest. The times I got the extras added the rep told me that I have two for sure and to contact him the week of the event to see if he can squeeze in the extras. Each time he was able to. He was a good dude but moved on now. I haven't tried it with my current rep. Their rules may have changed too for all I know. I never got selected for anything I got an invite too all last year so I have no recent experience with this. I got the invite for this one but didn't RSVP because I knew I couldn't go.

My name was drawn too. Does anyone remember if there was there a Q&A session during or after the breakfast?

I love that guy at the lunch who just asked why TSN has to talk so much rather than let the viewers enjoy the sights and sounds of the game. He didn't really get an answer, but I'm on his side!

Just put a muzzle on Caldwell and it’s all good ;)

I'm going to assume the response about safe standing is to not piss off the Argos fan in the south end? It'll be done in phases with the first phase being the first 5 rows or something (ie. the seats that are removed for CFL games).

There are few Argos fans in the south for their games. A go slow on safe standing might have more to do with doing all the needed South End reno at the same time.

Breakfast was decent (juice, taters, French toast, eggs, bacon).

They had jerseys for sale at $149 "special" price, with the star.

There was the announcement of the very gradual phase in of safe standing.

Some good news is that Tos is better and can now train.

TFC is targeting a couple of further new players.

A funny moment was after the jersey unveiling, one SSH complimenting them on the lack of blue in the new design. :lol:

Any news on the possibility of adding the star for those that bought the red jersey last year?

I asked some of the people there, they said it will cost about $10 to add the star

How is this a special price? It's $20 more than the Real Sports website.

Did they go into more detail on the safe standing? I know they said they will initially do the front 6 rows, but did they have a timeline for that and then the rest of the stand? Have they confirmed it'll be GA once it's in?

Seriously!

You can have the new kit at the special price of 1 zillion dollars...!!!

I was at the breakfast and the Price for a kit was $129.99 or $117 with the discount. Where are you getting $149 from?

That would likely be with numbers and names?

Justin10000

02-16-2018, 06:31 PM

There were named jerseys available, so that makes sense. There wasn't any 'special' pricing but attendees got 20% of the price.

I went up early, they seemed disorganized at that time, and were checking the price list, they may have read me the wrong price.

I bought a red star Giovinco Jersey for $149. Regular price is $164.99 so 20% off plus taxes gets you $149.
