    I won't be able to make it, but here is a link to the Jays' group ticket info, in case you haven't already stumbled across it. And no, I haven't read the rest of this thread to see if it's been posted already, since I'm not going.

    Yeah, one of the other Canuck SportsJournalists.comers is going to co-ordinate the group sale.

    It's important that we all sit together so Boom can discuss the seal hunt with everyone.

    One of the things about DC was that you got to know everyone, since there was really only like 10 of us.

    This sounds like it has the chance to be a lot bigger. Not that I'm complaining. But it doesn't seem like it'll be the bonding experience DC was.

    Well, based on initial response (and a few--I don't have exact numbers yet--have already booked their hotel rooms) there could be 20 at least. Maybe more.

    I have a group mailing list based on people who have expressed serious interest and I've got about 25 names on the list.

    Well, a flight from Kampala to Toronto would probably cost thousands. You should probably just stay home.

    Hotel's $125.00 to $150.00 a night depending on the room you choose.
    Tickets: we haven't decided on the price level. Probably $25.00-$30.00 a game.

    Rest is up to you.

    If you want more info PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send info on the hotel.

    I'd think The Ugandan Giant would be familiar with Toronto. I saw Kamala take on Hulk Hogan in a cage match at Maple Leaf Gardens some years back.
