Might bring some gloves. Definately should but we'll see. Absolutely the Vs scarf. Wee Elf will be kitted for a polar expedition. That woman... Yeah, I thought I had a V scarf but I haven’t been able to find it so I will need to buy one on site. Hopefully they don’t sell out. I am bringing thin gloves and wool mittens - game day decision. Other than that it will be many layers. And anti-freeze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True story: I lost my long-serving original Vs scarf in the craziness after Larin's goal in the Vancouver WCQ vs Honduras. Only to have Milan Borjan throw one straight to me at the end of the same match, one I take much better care of. gator, johnyb, Obinna and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I will be buying some this weekend since my only other ones are massive knee high insulated rubber boots - and they probably wouldn’t be great on a cramped airplane. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cblake Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Well think Terry will right , Edmonton and the country as I whole is getting behind these games, tickets have been flying off the selves since the public sale began about 20 min ago. Can't wait, this should be amazing, especially with the position Canada is in and Phonzie coming home. xabuep2, johnyb, RocketWheeler and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shway Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Outside of the game, whats the nightlife/part life in Edmonton. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pint and Greta get pretty full on weekends and have more of a party vibe if you're staying downtown. A $10 cab will get you to Whyte ave where there are way more clubs to check out (Cook County Country Bar, Beercade). Plenty of places downtown to kick back and have a beer if that's more your style too. Generally, downtown is more relaxed, and Whyte ave is where the party is.

Generally those are the only places where I can find "Cotton-Eye Joe" on the Jukebox. Drop a $20 bill in that baby, put it on repeat, and watch the place clear out. Good times.

We are working on a few things. Details not available yet though. However Whyte Ave has lots to see and do, there are plenty of pubs etc downtown … I’m not as familiar with the brewery district but it’s likely worth a look. Have to say though … for a guy with kids, a week away in Edmonton, reprieve from family duties, coming out of shells post Covid (somewhat) this could be … dangerous. 🤣 dyslexic nam, Shway, chalms04 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
