I know some people think the love for the Riders would equal an equally as rabid of fanbase for a hockey team but I don't agree. It is easy enough to sellout Mosaic in Regina 9 times a year (mostly on the weekend) but I don't think Saskatoon will consistently sellout a hockey rink when the Blue Jackets are in town on a Tuesday in January.
