Border Clubs Buffalo and Seattle both feature special programs and events for their Canadian fans
Buffalo
Each season, one Buffalo Bills home game is designated "Canada Day".
The 2006 edition of Canada Day takes place Sunday, December 3, at Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo.
Before the Bills take on the San Diego Chargers, the Canadian anthem will be played. Canadian half-time entertainment and special Scoreboard messages will also acknowledge the special role Canadian fans have played in the history of the Buffalo Bills NFL franchise.
Seattle
Less than a two hour drive from the Canadian border, Qwest Field attracts thousands of Canadian football fans each season. All 20 Seahawks games are broadcast in Vancouver on AM730, with special contests also running on "the Bro Jake Morning Show (Rock 101)."
With the support of the Seahawks’ BC Marketing Partners, Vancouver fans are able to participate in weekly promotions ranging from schedule poster giveaways to special events both in Vancouver and at Qwest Field.
Canadian Embassy
Perched above of Touchdown City in the upper mezzanine of the Qwest Field Event Center, you can find a distinctly Canadian flavour. This area, more commonly known as the Canadian Embassy, is a private pre-game party for more than 200 fans and is the place to be before four select Seahawks home games each season.
Pass holders include guests and customers of Canadian Seahawks radio advertisers, contest winners and other special guests. At each Embassy game these lucky guests enjoy pre-game tailgate food, visits from the Seagals, and participate in trivia contests to win some great prizes.
To find out how your organization can be part of the Canadian Embassy, the Vancouver radio broadcast, or other Seahawks promotions in Canada contact Ric Thomsen at ric@gogameday.ca
BC Day
BC Day marks the only time all year that the Canadian National Anthem is sung pre-game, as the Seahawks recognize their loyal following north of the border.
