Does playing junior ball 32 years ago for the Oshawa Hawkeyes count for anything?

Durham region doesn't like people coming in from Toronto.

Durham region doesn't like people coming in from Toronto.

Is that because I don't drive a pick up truck? Or because it will increase the average IQ?

I grew up in oshawa, only moved out of there a few years ago.

[Tobin Rote]

Not exactly... but real close.

That's close enough in my books.

[Golden Fleece]

Yes, sir.

North Durham here.

More of a reach than AV: lived in Oshawa for one year in 67 (era of Bobby Orr having played Junior there; Marv Luster, Dave Mann were some of my fave Argo players)

[Will]

Nope :)

Is there a project brewing Mike from Whitby?

Mike wants to put a bus on to the Argo games. ;)

Just kicking around an idea internally. An item came up during a recent discussion with another person who lives here in the wild east end. It may help jumpstart interest out here and I'm intrigued by it. It may be something that helps generate interest and provide a chance to socialize...you know...when we're able to do stuff like that. Stay tuned.

Happy to help when ready Mike.

After moving from Toronto to Durham my game attendance has certainly decreased. So if the discussion is about getting to more games from this area, I would welcome being part of that dialogue.

At first blush it’s likely easier for someone south of the equator (hwy 7) to get to games vs where I am north of it.

Stay safe!

Hopefully we’re gonna need a bigger boat doubleblue!

Just moved out here Mike!

Yes! I'm living in Whitby, and was raised in Oshawa. Been living in Durham Region for all but three of my 35 years. If you see a short guy with brown hair wearing an Argos Starter winter jacket, that would likely be me.
