Well we went to the arena today to check out seating etc....work crews are working hard to finish everything up...looking good. That place needs new seats though....eventually I hope...

We'll be getting our flex pack in the next day or 2....

After the arena tour we headed over to the icedogs office...was informed that our seats are still open...most of the reds are sold out to season ticket holders...but there are some left still.

Sorry no pics...forgot the camera.

It may be old, run down and a far cry from the John Labatt Center. But it has it's charm and a some great hockey stories i.e: bobby hull - marcel dionne - phil esposito - dennis hull - stan mikita - ken hodge - al secord - dale mccourt - ric seiling. and that is just a few of the players who played in Garden City Arena for St Catharines, not to mention the visiting players. So let pack the Jack, build a new arena and and let this old building go out with pride - packed and one of the loudest most feared buildings in the O

Maybe Costco sells 'em in bulk by the box :eek:

That would be cool they if like 100+ people starting blowing airhorns after every goal. Although the long-term effects on everyone's ears might be something to worry about :)

I brought an airhorn to the last game. I think it got drowned out by the goal horn but i heard it on TV. It ran out of air after the 2nd goal though. Im bringing it to every game.

My girlfriend got it for me for my birthday at Canadian Tire here in welland. She got me it cause she knew i wanted one for the icedogs. Watch the highlights Alpha just posted you can here it in the first goal. After that it ran out of air cause i held it too long the first time....

Word of caution folks but they have banned the air horn is some OHL rinks. I do not know if it is the rink or the league which has done this. :confused:
