Din758 371 Report post Posted April 12, 2011 So, I'm going to the game tomorrow, and really want to make sure I dont miss the opening ceremony. I believe in years past they would start it at game time (7pm game = ceremony starts at 7). So I guess my question is, do they post start times online anywhere, or should I just assume it will start promptly at 7 tomorrow. Also, while were on the subject, anyone know of what they are planning to do this year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evilzyme 769 Report post Posted April 12, 2011 Normally every playoff game i've been to it starts around maybe... 15-10 minutes before game-time. I've never been to a game that the intro takes 30 minutes even for the round 1 game 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Din758 371 Report post Posted April 12, 2011 A buddy of mine I just talked to in the ticketing office said that last year they started approx. 21 minutes before the set game time. He's going to call me in a little bit to let me know the plan for this year, and I will then pass it on to you guys. I would assume it will be pretty much he same this year, but ill let you know.

evilzyme 769 Report post Posted April 12, 2011 Thank ya sir. Anyone else have that playoff feeling in their stomach? I know it's only round 1 but dang... Yes, I can't think about anything else besides playoff hockey right now. I'm excited to see what the Wings bring to the table especially Round 1. Din758: thanks for calling your buddy, they still plan on playing the intro every game right? I believe thats how they've normally have done it in the past. I know I posted this in the 2011 Home Opener Entrance thread but man.. this video brings me chills. Beautiful poem, awesome montage, and Redmond... come on... this video should be included somehow in the playoff intro because it gives me the chills every time I watch it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It51ktP3WVI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they bring the pyro back for these playoffs Here's to embed for you for others: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Din758 371 Report post Posted April 13, 2011 OK guys, my buddy finally got a hold of me last night about what time the show will start. He said 20 min. before puck drop, so ~6:40. So I would suggest getting there by 6:30 so you can make it to your seats. LETS GET IT DONE TONIGHT BOYS!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted April 13, 2011 Gives me enough time to jet over there, then stop at Guinness tent purchase the beverage for each hand, sit and watch the show begin. And hope for a rockin rockin JLA! I want to go deaf mofo's! 1 Din758 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
