    >.< I already got session 1 ticket at section 4, not a VIP ticket.

    I took some pictures but they looked really bad so I decided not to post them.

    Lighting was definitely a weak point, but this is a good learning experience for the organizers/Badminton Canada should Canada land a GP event in the future.

    Agreed!! Hmm, did any of the players decide to go on the ice too or at least have a go around on the oval itself?

    No ice - it's been melted. The little stadium setting (seats 1,950) was located at the east end of the Oval. Are you not coming to watch?

    I considered it but did not put too much thought to it, so I did not purchase any tickets.

    I'm glad the two players had a sense of humour with the (same) long serve linesman, a Junior player who probably line-judged for the first time.

    Taufik received an "IN" :eek: (oooooo), and Andre received an "UNSIGHTED" :eek: call. Everybody knew the young line judge was soooo nervous. :D:D

    What a great opportunity for him to volunteer!

    Cheers!
