well, there's all of three people offering tickets. And since you can still get pairs off Ticketmaster for regular price, those offers are a bit hopeful, I'd say.

Took a while to find seat numbers but I found this image (not sure if accurate), but it looks right. Right now (Monday afternoon), the best pair available is Row 14 in the east corner.

No seats available in the North, South, or West seating areas. For reference, North is to the left on this map.

This is the most detailed map for the Corral,

StubHub does not put the effort that Ticketmaster does for their maps.

Wow, Disney On Ice isn't the hot ticket it once was.

I wouldn't give Ticketmaster too much credit. You can't even select the east side of the Corral as a search option because Ticketmaster simply reused the options for the Corral concert set-up and the east end of the building is where the stage usually goes.

Going to be weird seeing the benches on opposite sides; I believe each team's penalty box is right beside their bench, correct?

I got 4 tickets together, First row for Friday! Can't wait, I was at the first ever Hitmen game at the corral. Should be a great game and amazing atmosphere.

The concessions are going to be as primitive as everything else about the Corral is

If this game goes to OT, they should fight to death in that 'cage' above centre ice? Seriously what is that?

They are planning on adding food trucks at the SE corner to supplement the concessions.

Looks like the framing for a rudimentary score clock.

It still amazes me how Eric Francis can be so dumb when he tries to give opinions, but can still write a pretty good feature column:

Another Francis piece about the Corral, which includes this Lanny tidbit:

Quote:
But Lanny McDonald insists as part of his extensive contributions to the lore of the Stampede Corral he set a dubious record thanks to the rink’s inordinately high boards.

“We’re changing on the fly and Pep (Jim Peplinski) goes out the door and (Jamie) Hislop and I jump over the boards going either way,” recalls McDonald, still chuckling more than 30 years later.

“We had the old tube skates, and we locked them going over. Jamie gets his hands down in time and I don’t. I fall flat on my stomach, knock the wind out of myself, crawl back into the box and am lying there while the entire bench is laughing their ass off.

“It was the shortest shift in NHL history, a second-and-a-half maybe.”

Looks like full sell-out, not single standing room only tickets left for tonight.

My dad is going to be a bit jealous I get to see this. He always said how much he loved going to Calgary Centennials games in the 70's.

Kamloops had to play game three of their series with Kelowna at the old Memorial Arena due to a scheduling conflict with the Womens World Hockey Championships. I think it's the first time they've had to use that old barn since they beat the Blades in game 7 of the 92 League final.
