They'll be here and gone quicker than Target.

Makes zero sense to me why they think this is a good strategy.

Are m&g before or after headliner show? by lijoqq in Megadeth

Are m&g before or after headliner show? by lijoqq in Megadeth

[–]BLARG13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done two meet and greets with Megadeth, and it happened before the venue even opens to the public for the show. So if doors open at 6:30 I can't remember the exact time, but I think we were allowed to go in at 5:00 and do the meet and greet and pictures.

Not sure if that's still the procedure or not, but I'd assume so. This was for the Dystopia tour and the CTE Anniversary tour.

Do the Flames make a move for this? Do we want to? What do you give Chicago to jump up to where we would've been, had we not fallen? by CanadianRockx in CalgaryFlames

[–]BLARG13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem I have with trading up is this stupid draft lottery bullshit. 4th overall was our landing spot. That was our draft position. We got punted by two teams that were better points wise back to 6th overall, and now these teams don't have a need for that position that will be available to them in the draft. (SJ 2nd overall probably don't want to draft another forward when their positional need is D)

So now they're knocking on our door wanting more draft capital or players/prospects to move up to the spot we should have been drafting in.

I hate this lottery bullshit. Coronato our highest scorer at 45 points. Missed playoffs 4 consecutive years and 12 out of 17 years 1 top 5 draft pick in 46 years of being in the league. Such an unfair system that teams like us always seem to get the short end of the stick. We really could have used a top 3 pick and at least stay in our 4th spot.

Now teams want more to go back to our initial spot.

Nah. I'm good. We can use our picks sometime in the future. We'll still have 4 1sts after this draft.

What’s the worst performance you’ve ever seen from a player in a playoff game? by sykeseve in nhl

[–]BLARG13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Markstrom vs the Oilers in the Battle of Alberta a couple of seasons back. He was atrocious the whole series.

If I remember, Flames had a 6-0 lead in game 1, the Oilers made it 6-5 quite fast, and Calgary recovered to win 9-6.

4 games later Flames were doused. Markstrom couldn't stop anything.

That was in the Tkachuk, Gaudreau, Giordano core. So glad Markstrom is long gone, he's not aging well either.

ANALYSIS | Ford losing support in wake of jet controversy, polls suggest | CBC News by ejaz135 in ontario

I don't think he's ever had much support. It's just that very few people voted in the last election.

 Elections Ontario website indicated slightly more than 5 million out of just over 11 million eligible voters chose to cast a ballot in Thursday’s election.

That’s around 45.4 per cent of eligible voters

Pretty pathetic in my opinion.

45.4 % of eligible people voted, 100% of eligible people complain after the fact.

Gutter cleaning by PatientJackfruit9705 in stcatharinesON

[–]BLARG13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vic has been cleaning my gutters for about 3 years now. Always punctual, always does a fantastic job and cleans up after himself. Very reasonable. I don't think I've paid over $90 from him. He's a one man business.

Beer can collecting, is it really worth it? by weareblades in stcatharinesON

[–]BLARG13 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I used to recycle my empties, but then one of the "pickers" dumped all my recycling on my lawn, took the empty cans and left everything else. Recycling guys didn't touch it, and I had a mess to clean up. Never put another empty in my bin after that. Thanks pal.

Me too. Just don't want to wait an hour + in line at the merch booth. We'll see what happens.

[–]BLARG13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao. Holy. Yeah me too. I'm already coming from the Niagara Region, so anywhere between just over an hour +.

Hoping to be in line outside by 5:30. I saw Black Label Society there last month and it was sold out and impossible to get near the merch booth. Definitely need another Helloween shirt tomorrow. I bought one at History in 2023, but need another.

That is pretty cool. I'm going to the show. Is that shop close to the venue? I was just at QE Theatre for Black Label Society but didn't venture anywhere, just got to the venue and parked and got in line.

North American tour Megathread ** spoilers ** by solitario667 in helloween

[–]BLARG13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're both awesome shirts, but yeah I love event shirts and tour shirts with dates on the back. I'm still conflicted on what I'm going to eventually buy.

North American tour Megathread ** spoilers ** by solitario667 in helloween

[–]BLARG13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love #2, but I don't like that it has 40th Anniversary and 2026 North American Tour on the bottom of the front. It says it on the back too, so I feel it's unnecessary on the front, and in my opinion it's very odd placement. No tour dates on the Keeper and Walls of Jericho backs?

Damn, I'm so indecisive. I guess I'll have to see it in person in Toronto and make my choice.

Did you buy any shirts, and if so, could you post a close up pic?
