The Halifax Raiders decided to hold one of their several season ticket holder events a few days ago. This event was a meet and greet opportunity between the players, some key management figures and of course, the incredibly loyal and supportive season ticket holders that the Raiders are fortunate to have. The event was held within the Raiders’ arena and on the actual floor of the arena where the ice is covered when it’s not game-day.

Aside from lines for autographs and photos opportunities between the players and fans, the team also provided a nice amount of snacks and other goodies for fans who attended the event, such as popcorn, cotton candy, several types of candy and chocolates, and a soda machine, as well. Additionally, there were a few special prizes raffled off, such as a team signed jersey, some signed pucks and sticks, and some seat upgrades for a future Raiders game.

Though an exact number wasn’t officially given, it’s speculated that several thousand fans showed up for the event. Most players had equal sized lines, ranging from veterans such as Timmo Kyllonen @Lemonade to rookies such as Ricky Spanish @Whikadoodle. In sum, it was a lovely event for the fans and players to meet and get to know one another better and it emphasized the special bond between both the Raiders and the most dedicated of fans of the team.
