RAMBUTANS Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 As I watch the WJC, it dawned on me, this is exactly what the Canucks need to push them over the top. Cheerleaders help fans (especially the robotic suits at the lower levels) enliven their adrenaline. This in turn, makes us louder. Remember Bieksa complaining about the lack of passion of fans? Well, this addresses that. Before traditionalists gives a howl, let me just stop you right there and say you never progress without change. Let me give you 2 living examples where this works. Remember the current Stanley Cup Champs? LA Kings? They have them. See the result? Second great example, the perrenial NBA powerhouse, LA Lakers, they have the world famous Laker Girls.

lowest common denominator Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 This is gonna turn into an "Atmosphere at GM Place suucks" thread, which it does. We already have cheerleaders, they are hard at work on this board right now! Connaughton for NORRISSSSS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 If you need cheerleaders in hockey to spark your crowd there's something wrong. I'm pretty sure the Seahawks have great atmosphere and their fans are loud because of it's cheerleaders... I love looking at attractive women. But I'm there to watch a sport, not look at their pom-poms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowest common denominator Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 With VanC demographics the way they are, there would be two cheerleading squads. Squad 1: Basically a new version of the Village People (YyyMCA!) Squad 2: Life size Hello Kitty! dolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 When I last went to a Canucks game in the lower bowl. There was two guys behind me who showed up in the last 5 minutes of the first period. All they did was talk real estate ALL game long. When I went to a game in the upper bowl. Fans were nuts, loud, and totally into it. In fact they were taunting a poor bugger who was wearing a Kings jersey. You really think cheerleaders will change people going to games like that with the "suits mentality" in the lower bowl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
