This package is available for all season ticket holders of all teams. You just have to selct the team you are a season ticket holder of.

2$ a road game a great deal IMO. Nice perk for all the Season ticket holders from across the Dub.

If the quality and reliability is good across the board I'm definitely buying this package. It would be nice if people who watch some of the first few games online will post their feedback here for everyone to view. Since I've got until the 30th before the Blazers' first road game, I wouldn't mind hearing a few opinions before I make the purchase.

you can test the quality

if you go to the site, click on "watch live", then click on "click here to test your computer and bandwith"

it will bring up a sample of an OHL game from last year

i have an LCD monitor and it wasnt half bad on my end, the ice was VERY bright and a little tough to see the puck when the camera was zoomed out, but a few adjustments on my monitor and it should be good

i dont know if this will be exactly how things are, but give it a test and see how you like it

I've done that and it seems good enough (not great), but I wonder how the quality in say, Moose Jaw, will be in comparison to say, Vancouver or Calgary. Time delay, # of cameras, sync up with the audio, consistent feed, etc.

So I wouldn't mind getting comments on a bunch of arenas' broadcasts.

$74.99 for season ticket holders is $2.08, pretty cheap. Does anyone know if I have four season tickets and if myself, brother and brother inlaw want to all purchase at this special price?

I have sent them an email asking them that very question as I am in a similar situation.

Ok I got a reply back from them and it is not off to a good start...

I sent this -



Afternoon,

I was wondering about your package for WHL Season Ticket holders, the 74.95$ package for road games.

I currently hold 4 Season Tickets, for the Vancouver Giants, that are all in my name, but I share them with 3 other People. It's just easier to get all the tickets etc run thru one person.

Since I have 4 Season tickets - does this allow me to purchase 4 of these road game packages, or am I only allowed to purchase 1 since all the tickets are only in my name?

Thanks in advance for answering this question for me.

and got this back :mad:
