It was PNE good times last Saturday.

The Tyrrell’s got tickets to see the BC Lions Home Opener and invited us out to join them. Ryan then got the genius idea to make it a full day of events and head over to the race track before kick off.

I like the way this man thinks!

I heart the race track. Not only is it fun to bet $2 on the horse with the coolest name, but it is also such a great place to people watch.

Willy Quan…Is that you!?

Who wouldn’t want to sit and stare at this view all day?

Johnny Drama

I didn’t know Johnny Drama was showing up.

Track Head

After the game we tried to look for a place to eat that we could walk to. Unfortunately everything was packed full of Lions fans, so our only option was to hit up Tom and Jerrys on Hastings street. This place is GHETTO, but I have to say, the food was pretty damn good. Totally not what I was excepting. I probably won’t go back, but for what it was that day, it was good.

The funniest thing was watching all the players come out of their locker room, which was of course, a portable!

WOOT WOOT!

CF18

CF18 BONER. I was obsessed with this thing the whole night. I am still so obsessed that Chad is going to take me to the Abbotsford Air Show so I can see it again. YAY!

INJURY!

TSN is Ghetto

Wow, TSN, I expected more…

CF18 Pilot

I’m sneaky and got a picture of the Pilot who flew the CF18. Yes, he made it to the game after his fly by!

Also note, that there is really no point in me ever wearing making up since it only lasts on my face for 5 minutes.

The army sat behind us the whole time, and all I wanted to do was sit there and watch them.

I am craaaaaazy!

It was a good first quarter. They scored a touchdown right in front of us. The rest of the game sucked, but the atmosphere was awesome!

Where the Horses were
Hello Mister

We got word from Elise’s friend who works PNE parking that they park all the overflow cars on the inside of the track. I had to see this for myself, plus it gave me an opportunity to run around on the horse track, which seemed like an amazing idea at the time.

A great day in our beautiful city! I love the PNE and all the things it has to offer on its grounds.

I can’t wait for more summer days like this!

More Hastings Racecourse!!!

    It’s pretty rad the pilot sat right behind you. Get an autograph?
