So I wouldn't be concerned about packing a water bottle (if you're really concerned you can bring an empty one and fill it at the stadium) and some small snacks; anything you can fit in your jacket pocket won't even be checked so there is that option too.
Yeah and besides the Stamps aren't in any position to turn back fans. I don't expect the crowds are going to be very good this season.

Ticket sales for the Lions home opener are going well, in fact they are opening up the upper bowl and they might have over 30,000 for Saturday's game. Hopefully, they can record a win over Edmonton to reward the fans.

That's good news as the Lions were getting 12k crowds last season. That new owner must have done a good job with advertising in the offseason. I believe the Riders are only expecting around 25k for their opener and the Bombers have not sold theirs out.

Yeah I don't mind that as a change of pace. Stands out but in a good way.

This is in part because they are really jazzing it up for their opener, with concerts before the game featuring One Republic.

That’s actually pretty cool, I just hope half the crowd doesn’t leave before kickoff…

All right, Rose gets a tipped ball to fall right in his hands. Stamps ball.

Just curious if anyone lese has brought food in and if it was a hassle or not?
I’ve brought in bottles of Coke in, without trying to hide them. Sometimes the cop just makes sure the cap is still sealed (proving no alcohol was added)

Not good and you can't blame the weather. Hopefully it improves as the season wears on.

Was hoping for a bit more, but a Thursday home opener is lame. People getting home from work at 5-6, etc.

Also people who by single game tickets may have spent lots on Flames playoff tickets.
