The Prince George Spruce Kings have been red hot through the last 6 games, and they looked to derail division rivals the Coquitlam Express at the Rolling Mix Concrete Arena last night.
It was the feature game of the month as play by play was provided on 99.3 The Drive! Whenever it is a feature game from the Jim Pattison Broadcast Group, you know there is going to be some great prizes handed out!
That was no different yesterday! The game was sponsored by Black Diamond Lanes thanks to their long time support of the community run team, so we had a little help from them during our on ice contesting! In the spirit of Halloween, we grabbed their mascot Peter Pin to have a costume component, to help us out!
Our contestant had the opportunity to win MARIANA’S TRENCH tickets, a band she follows on all social media platforms, joking to me about how they are always making fun of their drummer Ian! All that contestant Paige had to do was find Peter Pin on the ice … while blindfolded!
With help from the crowd, Paige (accompanied by her friend Emily for support) scored herself those Mariana’s Trench tickets! Yes, she was a little bummed that the concert has been postponed to February 9th due to sickness, but she just wants them to be fully recovered, and have them be able to perform at full capacity when they are here!
The game was an absolute blast AND the cherry on top, the Kings had a comeback victory in a 6-4 defeat of the Express!
