The Vig

From Gregg Drinnan’s Taking Note blog this morning:

The Radio Wars going on between the two cities has gotten comical. After Drive morning show host Steve Russell phone Medicine Hat area golf courses looking for tee-times for the Tigers on Wednesday morning a Hat radio station personality phoned the Drive this morning saying that he was Ice forward Dustin Sylvester and that he had missed the bus to Medicine Hat. The Drive went on the air asking if someone could give Sylvester a ride to Medicine Hat. At 8 a.m., Ice players received text messages on their cell phones asking if Sylvester was really not with the team. Sylvester was obviously with the team and went on to score a goal and an assist, garnering first star honours.

It’ll be fun when we can start doing that with Trail Blazer playoff opponents again.
