Not sure where else to post this, so I'll post it here.
This is probably the best time in Winnipeg's history to be a sports fan. The Blue Bombers are winning Grey Cups and we have three professional hockey teams in Winnipeg.
Ice games are cheap fun. The fact that I got to see Conor Bedard, Conor Geekie, Benson & Savoie for under $20 a seat last season is amazing. I will be able to do it again, this season (hope other people are starting to realize how nice it is to have the WHL in town).
The moose are cheap entertainment. Almost all Jets draft picks came through the AHL prior to playing on the Jets (with the exception of Laine). Again, tickets are under $20.00.
We have more access to Jets content then I could have dreamed of as a kids. A bunch of podcasts, websites & apps that will give you AS MUCH JETS/NHL CONTENT AS YOU COULD POSSIBLY NEED. The winters were incredibly boring for those 15 years we didn't have a team. On top of that, we get to see McDavid, Makar, Shesterkin for $60.00 a seat. In 1999, if you wanted to see Gretzky/Federov, you'd be paying hundreds to drive/fly + hotel etc.
