The Condors have clinched a playoff spot, now we just have to wait and see where the team will finish in the standings, which will determine the Condors 1st round game dates. The Condors are currently in 2nd place, one point ahead of Long Beach. Should the Condors win in Stockton on Friday (or lose in overtime) and Long Beach lose against Las Vegas, the Condors will clinch 2nd place. If any other scenario takes place Friday, the final outcome won’t be determined until Saturday night when the Condors host Alaska, and Long Beach plays at Fresno. The Condors hold the tie-breaker over Long Beach, which is total wins. These are the playoff scenarios:
If Long Beach finishes 2nd and Bakersfield
finishes 3rd:
Bakersfield Condors Home Playoff Game Promotions, based on Round One scenarios mentioned above: If the Condors finish in 2nd place:

seconds remaining as the Bakersfield Condors

of 4,466 fans at the “E” Center and moves into 2nd
place. Kevin St. Jacques becomes the second
Condor to record his 1,000th point with the team.

On Saturday, April 1st Bud Light (Advanced Beverage) presented the Bakersfield Fog Jersey Raffle and Auction. The Condors turned back the clock and donned the jerseys of their predecessor the Fog and raised $32,200. After the Condors 3-1 win over Phoenix the game-worn Fog jerseys were auctioned off including former Condors and Fog players Kevin Barrett and Glen Mears. Barrett’s jersey brought in $1,000, while Mears went for $1,600. Condors goalie Ryan Munce’s sweater went for $3,000 and Eric Neilson’s brought in $2,800. The surprise of the night came when Kevin St. Jacques, whose jersey went for $4,000, broke the team’s individual jersey record, which Munce set at $3,800 last month during the USA Olympic jersey auction. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Kern County Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).

The Bakersfield Condors appreciate the support and sponsorship of Bill Wright Toyota during the 05- 06 season. Bill Wright Toyota was one of the first local businesses to get on board with the Condors and have been corporate sponsors for many years. They currently sponsor the Bill Wright Toyota “Shoot to Win a Car” on-ice contest as well as two on-ice logos. In order to win a brand new car from Bill Wright Toyota contestants of the “Shoot to Win a Car” have to shoot a puck from center ice through a small cut-out hole in the goal net. It hasn’t happened yet, but we’re keeping our fingers crossed. “Bill Wright Toyota sponsors the Bakersfield Condors to contribute to the spirit, pride and winning attitude of our community, said General Sales Manager Kevan Juergens. “We share a common vision to become the best in our respective fields. The Condors serve as an inspiration to all of us.” Bill Wright Toyota offers a full-line of quality vehicles, as well as extensive service and parts departments with courteous staff.
