SkeeterHansen Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Thinking of taking my cousin on the RA tour...read up on it, and it looks pretty good. Great price, but what I want to know is: Is it worth the $ for a one hour fifteen minute tour? Has anyone ever taken it that can give me some info? Thanks!

Tortorella's Rant Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I remember taking it WAY back in the third grade. I'm 23 now. It was cool, but I don't remember much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Well, you could ask some of the people that have gone on the tour. I thought there was a thread just recently but didn't find it in a quick search. Here's the ones I did find: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapefruits Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Considering it's only $12 bucks for Adults, how could it not be worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucks411 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I went two years ago (24 yrs old) and I enjoyed it. Being from Saskatchewan it was real cool to see the Canucks Arena. We went while there was a practice going on an got a good pic with Ehroff who was injured at the time. Wish we could of seen the dressing rooms, but for $24 for the wife and I it was good. It was right before playoffs too so lots of excitement, now with no hockey meh. I;d still recommend checking it out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grapefruits Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Maybe he's on welfare. $12 is a lot to those people, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down by the River Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Who benefits from the proceeds? If the Aquilinis, I would take your cousin to a Giants game. Almost the same price, and at least he/she can watch some good hockey played by kids who get a couple hundred bucks a month to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melbourne Canuck Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I did the tour in February 2011 & I found it to be great! Being a born & bred Australian only watching games online, it was awesome to finally see the stadium for real. I'm not sure whether I was just super lucky, but we went into the locker rooms, walked through to the bench & sat on the bench next to the ice. Also saw some of the corporate suites, the broadcasters studio in the rafters & walked the inner concourse from where the players arrive & get to the locker rooms. The tour also took in the podium where coach V does his press conferences & the players gym. There's also an added bonus of a discount voucher for the Canucks store (20%?) which I used to buy a Luongo jersey (among other things). Far and away the best $12 I spent on a month long tour of Canada & the US. Happy to answer any other questions if you have any... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Doctor Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 If you can't see the dressing room the only other thing would be the broadcast booth that would interest me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
