Kitchener, Ontario – Tournament General Manager John Thompson announced today that ticket packages for the 2008 MasterCard Memorial Cup to be held at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium in Kitchener, Ontario from May 16 – 25, 2008 will be available to the general public through a lottery system.

The public lottery has been introduced as majority of tickets have already been purchased by Kitchener Rangers season ticket holders and the Canadian Hockey League and its member teams. The Lottery will be the only way that CHL fans from across the country can have access to tickets for the event.

This opportunity has been made possible through the Kitchener Rangers construction of additional permanent seating and reserved standing locations at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium. Along with the reserved seating expansion, general standing room areas will be expanded that will allow additional opportunities for fans to attend the championship.

TICKET PACKAGES Ticket packages include game tickets to all championship games (up to nine games), GST, and a voucher for an official tournament program.

Successful lottery entry winners will also have the option to purchase a ticket(s) to the Kitchener Rangers Memorial Cup Alumni Charity Game to be played on Saturday, May 24th.

Fans will have the opportunity to indicate the types of ticket packages they are interested in purchasing from the following options:

• Reserved seating championship ticket package; $498.00

• Reserved standing at ice, concourse and media levels championship ticket package; $479.00

• General standing at concourse and media levels championship ticket package; $458.00

GOOD NEWS!

I just heard from my boss, and we have won seats in the lottery for the memorial cup!!!

I will be attending the WHL vs QMJHL game, and, I also will be attending the Memorial Cup Final Game!

Hopefully at least one Ontario team (the Rangers, and/or whomever, go you Dogs!) are in the finals.

I will definitely bring my camera and take lots of pics!

WOOOOHOOOO.

That being said, I will now have attended the following games where cups have been presented:

OHL Championship (Kitchener Rangers - 2003)
AHL Championship (Hamilton Bulldogs - 2007)
Memorial Cup Championship (to be determined - 2008)

only four more to go, lol (3 not going to happen, who knows about the Stanley Cup Finals!)
WHL, QMJHL and ECHL championships, and of course, the grand daddy of them all, the Stanley Cup Finals!

Nope, I guess we will find out after Friday, when everyone has to pay the $$$ to them...then they assign seats via a random draw I think.

They've got hotlinking turned off - so unless the URL request comes from that site's domain, it won't allow the pic to be displayed (which is smart to do to keep other sites from stealing your bandwidth).
