Great memory! Until you posted that, I completely forgot I went to two season ticket holder events that partial lockout season/summer where King implied the announcement would come shortly after the municipal election. Oh, and he always adds we (season tickets holders) will know in advance of anyone else. Hilarious how excited I was looking back now, or any time it's happened. Although that particular time had the flood so nothing they could do...the others, though?

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me three times, ?
Fool me four times, ?
Fool me five times, ?

Ken King wins. Why say something noncommittal like "I can't comment on that right now" or "when the appropriate time comes we will release information" when you can lead people on and build excitement each time? Brilliant, and I fall for it every time.
