A good friend of mine has two tickets for the 2020 Super Bowl, 50 yard line box seats. He paid $2,500 each but didn't realize last year when he bought them that it was going to be on the same day as his wedding. If you're interested, he's looking for someone to take his place....It's at St. Michael's church in Trail BC at 3pm. The brides name is Nicole, she's 5'4", about 115 lbs and a good cook too. She'll be the one in the white dress.


I can't make it, got a curling bonspiel

Oldie but goodie. However, it needs more updating. The Chiefs organization just tonight (Sunday) that they have ticket packages starting @ $4,300.00. I doubt that these are at the 50 yard line. Aren't I a poop in the pants? LOl.

Go Chiefs!!!

The last super bowl I went to, I did not have to pay a penny, and that's pretty much the way I like it, I wouldn't pay money for it!

Hey, does Trail still have a hockey team called the "Smoke Eaters"?

Yeah, it was. And last year and the year before, etc., etc.
But it's new to some people.

I get seats at the 50 and in both end zones and a few other spots in between. I transport between them even faster than Kirk and Spock beaming from place to place. It doesn't cost me anything.

Yes they do, but it is now a Junior A team, not a senior.

How do you know about the Senior team?

Yeah...and Super Bowl I (or whatever they called it back then), the average ticket price was $12.00 and that stadium was only about 60% full. My, how times have changed!

Swede: I grew up in Canada, was in Grade Six (in Montreal) when the Smoke Eaters won a championship...1955 or '56 I think.

Price sure has gone up as I went to the first in LA 1967 and we walked in and had box seats on the 50 yard line and paid $6.00 a ticket to get in. I'll watch it on TV.

Here's a link of their history in the Savage Cup, best Senior team in BC, 18 total Championships dating back to 1926/ 27. They did win the cup again in 51-52, then again in 60- 61 so that might be what you remember.

Here's a link of their entire history, including their 2 World Championships and their 2 Allan Cups, the best Senior team in Canada.

Lots of hockey history around here, and we are rather proud of it, we have a pretty good Junior A team this year.
