    Got it. Kinda funny when you think of it. For baseball and football ... half the stadium was lousy after the reconfig. Luckily it all worked out 40 years later.

    No doubt. A great movie like Blazing Saddles could never be made today.

    Yes, there would be a massive outcry over the portrayal of German's in that offensive flick.

    Thanks for the tip, GF. Turns out I did get two after all. Now I have to decide whether to use the lanyards or follow my previous pattern of keeping the ticket book intact and letting them scan the tix in the book. Because of the design of the books, and because the "intact" method hasn't produced a Grey Cup win in three seasons, I will probably use the lanyards.

    Make sure you read to the bottom of today's season ticket holder email. There is a coupon code for an on-line purchase at the Argos store. Assuming they had this gesture planned all along and it wasn't a response to reading this thread.

    Read carefully -- the code is only good for one online transaction only -- can't be used in stadium at BMO. Also, no mention of an expiry date but to be on the safe side, I would make your purchase sooner rather than later if you are planning on making one.

    you also have the ability to download the tix from the online account manager or display on a smartphone.. this way you can leave all the tix in the booklet intact.

    True, but it's better than a kick in the teeth as my Dad used to say. Also, it might be the first of many offers throughout the season.

    Unless my phone has terrible colour repro, that looks like a silver shield. A colour we abandoned in 2005, I believe. What's with that?
