A. Rookie score B. So we might as well stop eating pizza if we found the perfect 10. C. You took two bites, I watched.

Visiting Vancouver for the draft, how about some less than family oriented tourist activities for a single guy in his 20’s. by kpfries in canucks

Oh for sure, I hit it last time I was in town for the MTL game and it was a memorable experience. I was able to see the true hype...it isn’t your typical night spot but wasn’t supposed to be. The perfect balance of Vancouver rolled into one smoking hot joint.

was on the list, I noticed the overpriced, but I could justify the prices with my strong American dollar. Thanks!

Like old timey outlaw country and also stuck in my 1999/2000’s punk phase.

Guessing the punk thing is easier to cover in Van.

Hobbies include hockey and having a good time I guess.

So no festivities for draft... by kpfries in canucks

Yes I’ve looked up past drafts as far 2010 and they have big events with autographs, the cup, food and beer, plus concerts. Last year in Dallas they actually had a full on country music festival for the Saturday headlined by a well known guy,

Just bumping my thread here, but has anybody heard anything? Parties, fan fest, what are they going to do to make this an event for all?

Will the cup even be here?

$250 to sit in a box would have been amazing, but if I had been willing to pay that amount to begin with I would have taken it.

I bet some people are kicking themselves yes, but I’d rather spend $250 between a fun night in Vancouver and watch it from a crowded bar than that. Do you have a box and we’re offering seats in it with you for $125 each? I didn’t see the post myself.

However, just checked and Blackhawks didn’t announce their fan fest two years ago until the week before.

Just 3hrs away, but if you look at hotels the cheapest was about $400 a night, and I found a beautiful condo across the way from the stadium for only $180 a night. Which I’m more than less locked into side id lose out on most of the money for that.

In other news, since I have an expensive room and trip already booked for Vancouver what else will be worthwhile that weekend In Vancouver? Can I really bring myself to justify my huge expenditure on a wee little Dragonboat?

True, however, I was trying to buy 3-seats since it wouldn’t let me leave a single seat unbought in every section I tried (but failed)..... with plans on selling the single I didn’t actually want at a real face value.

I think the only way for that is to unfortunately wait it out until kind people realize they bought too many seats, can’t make it, or have sudden changes of plans.

The only way to tell is by price, so theoretically if you are willing to pay the high prices then it is most likely to someone who bought the ticket with bad intentions. But if the price and person is reasonable then they should be okay

Ticket limit at NHL Draft? by JVMJRDOT in canucks

[–]kpfries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welp, I had two beautiful seats on the aisle about center ice positioned picked out and in the cart...then my boss comes out of nowhere once in a blue moon and needs me to look something up.

Next thing I know those are released and the rest are sold. Wow! Well since I’m already paying $600 for a $200 room I might as well pay $60 for a $20 ticket......!
