The Edmonton Elks - CFL

Unsure how to adequately layer for +5 to +10C, light rain, 10/10 air index. I guess everything is coming along.

Looking forward to the McMahon tailgate. I've got the annual 'Elks Juice' to share with the Stamp hosts.

1L ginger ale
EP (375ml) Canadian Club/Jaegermeister
Cedar extract/walnut bitters
Splash of smokey maple syrup

33-30 us is my prediction.

GO ELKS GO!
 
It was pretty bad ball overall, but a fun, if not frustrating game to watch.

Good times.
 
I hope that there is a good walkup. Hearing 22k 'sold', but it sure looks like there are a lot of tickets available and they are not evening selling the upper bowl; that might be the first time I've ever seen that.

Despite having lower attendance numbers than previous years, I think Edmonton still has one of the highest attendance records in the league (size of venue might help in this regard, somewhat).

I'm curious to see what the atmosphere will be like with the upper bowl closed off. With everyone spread out, the atmosphere can fall off a cliff. Seattle Sounders MLS soccer team used to close the upper bowl, as they shared the stadium with Seahawks. When the lower bowl was full, and upper bowl closed, the sounders games were rocking.
