Back For My 20th Season:

I was born and raised in Vernon, BC and have been going to Junior Hockey games in Vernon since I was a young child. This is my 20th straight year with season tickets. Over the last 20 years I have missed just 42 home games. I have missed just one home game since the 2002-03 season. Last year (September) I missed my first home game since 2002-03 wich ment my streak of 236 straight Vipers home games came to an end. I worked with the Vipers back in 2003-04 as colour comentator helping out with a few games over the internet.I collect and keep all my ticket stubs, after going back through them I noticed I have missed 42 Vernon Lakers-Vipers home games since the 1990-91 season.

Here's a list of the home games I missed since the 1990-91 season.

1990-91 missed 1 home game
1994-95 missed 1 home game
1995-96 missed 3 playoff home games
1997-98 missed 7 home games
1998-99 missed 13 home games and 2 playoff home games
1999-2000 missed 5 home games and 4 playoff home games
2001-02 missed 4 home games
