Streak Comes To An End At 315 Games:

I have had season tickets for twenty nine years and only missed forty two Vernon Lakers/Vipers home games since the 1990-91 season. Tonight will be the first Vernon Vipers home game I have missed since the 2009-10 regular season. The last Vernon Vipers home game I missed was a Vernon Vipers/Williams Lake Timberwolves game on September 26th 2009. I will be away at a destination wedding and will miss this afternoon's Vipers/Grizzlies game. I have been to the last 315 Vernon Vipers regular season & playoff home games over parts of the last ten years.

I collect and keep all of my ticket stubs from the Vernon Lakers/Vipers games going back to 1988. I have every Vernon Lakers/Vipers ticket stub from every game I have gone too since the 1990-91 season.

Here is a list of the Vernon Lakers/Vipers home games I have missed since the 1990-91 season

1990-91 Missed one regular season home game
1994-95 Missed one regular season home game
1995-96 Missed three home playoff games
1997-98 Missed seven regular season home games
1998-99 Missed thirteen regular season home games and two playoff home games
1999-00 Missed five regular season home games and four playoff home games
2001-02 Missed four regular season home games
2002-03 Missed one playoff home game
2009-10 Missed one regular season home game
