Exclusive clues to the “Mystery Man’s” location at certain times during the day will be shared by with us and other selected bloggers. Since we’ll be mobile during Grey Cup, we’ll be tweeting our clues so you will want to follow us @BCLionsDen. All our contest clues will be tagged with #YVRChase

The BC Lions play their last game at Empire Field on September 10th when they host the Toronto Argonauts. For what it is, Empire Field has been a great place to watch a football game. The weather for the most part was outstanding and mountain backdrop made the view unlike any other in Canada.
That said, the stadium really wasn’t that kind to the Leos in win column and the time has come to return to the comforts of home and a refurnished, state of the art BC Place stadium and we want you to be there for this historic Vancouver sporting event.
BCLionsDen.ca has joined forces with the Rosedale on Robson Suite Hotel and the Donnelly Group to give you a chance to be there live when the BC Lions and Edmonton Eskimos re-open BC Place stadium on September 30th, 2011.
We’ve come up with four pairs of tickets to the big game and every Monday in September we’ll be giving one lucky reader, Twitter follower or Facebook fan two tickets. For our first three pairs of tickets, the winner will also receive a gift certificate to a Donnelly Group establishment.
The fourth week is the grand prize giveaway. Two tickets to the game including a room for the night at the Rosedale on Robson, $150.00 Donnelly Group gift certificate and a BC Lions prize pack.
So how do you win?
- Check out the contest on the Rosedale on Robson Facebook Page and submit a photo of yourself sporting your BC Lions or CFL gear. Each photo you submit will get you one entry to the contest. (1 entry)

Today I had the pleasure of helping award the Dante Marsh canvas print that Dante provided for us to raffle off for CFL Fans Fight Cancer.
The lucky winner was Heather Swift of Abbotsford, BC. who purchased her ticket a tailgate party earlier this season. Heather ventured out to the BC Lions practice facility today to receive her prize from Dante himself.
After the cost of the print, we were able to raise $300.00 for CFLFFC. Each year a group of CFL Fans across Canada attempt to raise money for various Cancer charities on our local communities. This past off-season, Lions DB Korey Banks lost his young son to cancer and he’s in the process of establishing the Hope24 Foundation in his honour and to help those fighting childhood cancer.
Today, the BC chapter of CFLFFC, thanks to the help of CFL fans like you, were pleased to donate the $300.00 raised through this raffle to Banks’ new foundation in memory of his son.
Thanks to Dante Marsh and to CFL fans for their support and congratulations to Heather!
Congratulations to @MTBikerguy on Twitter who won two tickets to the Lions and Eskimos on Sunday June 20th. The marks a historic day in the history of the BC Lions Football club and BCLionsDen.ca and ShowtimeTickets.com were happy to give away a pair of tickets!
The winner will be contacted by DM on Twitter to arrange pickup.
Thanks for playing everyone and thanks to ShowTimeTickets.com for supplying the tickets.
GO LIONS GO!
