Heritage Classic ... Edmonton ... 2003.
We were in whatever row is about 3 rows from the top of that garbage stadium. My buddy decided to walk throughout the building during the intermissions to try and keep warm. I felt oddly comfortable where I was so I elected to just sit there. By the time it was all said and done (as were the oilers - haha) I had been sitting in one plastic chair for around 3-4 hours.
When it was time to leave I stood up and started to realize that I may have damaged my body. Walking down the stairs I started feeling nauseated and a little dizzy. By the time I reached the bottom it felt like I'd run up the stairs ... i was out of breath for some reason. Standing around waiting for a bus I was certain I was going to vomit. It was absolutely terrible.
Then again that almost always happens when I'm in edmonton, so perhaps the cold had little to do with it.
