I'm not sure if you notice this or not or if there's just something wrong with the camera they were using, but if you take a look at the first 2 photo's of my first post of the dressing room and the hallway with the coke machine tipped over, you can clearly see the ghost of the saddledome doing a little photobombing of its own.. haha.

The round orbs.

FYI: if you all didn't know, there actually is a ghost that haunts the dome. You can feel the chills down your spine in the hallways going to the sportchek zone. Whatever side the restaurant is on.

If they do I will burn down the entire city (except for the 'Dome) so that they have to change it back to Flames!

Weird, I've worked in there for almost 10 yeas and never heard this story before.

Will this flood make my next heroin beer:

A) More potent?
B) Less potent?
C) More crunchy?

Discuss.

It does explain what the Canucks were seemingly slipping on all these years.

All three are sports facilities that suffered catastrophic damage in the last 10 years. All three have the suffix -dome. Freak coincidence? Probably.
The Georgiadome in the same time period suffered some damage but not catastrophic. http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/23640939/

Yeah, theres really not much to talk about. But upon building the dome, there was a construction worker up on the catwalk where the jumbtron currently is. He basically fell to his death, through I am not sure if it was just the one or if two had died falling.

Every now and than you can hear hammering up there.. it's freaky.

Rrrrrriiiiiiiiiigggggghhhhhhttttt....

...Sorry. I had to get that out.

Not to make this a thread about the farce of paranormal activity, but there is no such thing as "ghosts" beyond the fears that exist in our own minds.

Never had any experiences myself, but I think this I warranted: just because you say it doesn't make it true.

I worked there for 5 years, spending a lot of time in the 300s. Never heard of anything like that.

I have been up those hallways a thousand times or more. Take my young son there to run around during intermission. Have never felt a "chill" down my spin.

No, it doesn't. What "makes it true" is the absence of any evidence for paranormal phenomena. No evidence. Not...a...shred...

Would they have to take out the floor to reinstall the ice plant and piping and everything, or is this something that can be replaced without that need?

(Sorry to interrupt a discussion of ghosts)

So by that logic we can conclude there is no life in the Universe except on Earth; because we also currently lack the ability to prove it conclusively.

Sorry, you can't just bring up a subject and then say "however let's not discuss this."

Are unicorns real? We can speculate that they are, but how about we don't state they exist in the saddledome...

I believe to replace the pipes they would need to take out the floor. I can't imagine it's in good shape anyway with a few days of standing water on it and how dirty that water was. Just take the floor out, replace the pipes, put a new floor down.
