Your tickets for the playoffs are most likely labeled with letters, opposed to having a specific game date on them. This was done because the tickets were printed prior to us knowing when our games would be played.

The ticket marked Playoff Game “E” should be used to gain entry into the Condors game this Friday, April 28th. Use the ticket labeled Playoff Game “F” for Saturday’s game and Playoff Game “G” for Wednesday, May 3rd, if that game is played. If you don’t have them yet, your playoff tickets can be picked up in the Condors office through Friday between 8:30am and 5:00pm. For more information contact your account rep at 324-PUCK (7825).

Prints incorporating Joel Irving scoring the Game Seven game winning goal will be for sale at the game this Friday night. A limited number are being produced so get yours early at the game on Friday. The prints will sell for $3 a piece. In addition, 2006 Kelly Cup pucks are available at all Condors merchandise stands, as well as the Condors Team Store. A newly designed black and white Trucker Cap is now in stock as well. The Condors Team Store is open Monday thru Friday 11:30am to 5pm. For more information visit the team store at 1022 Truxtun Ave or call 324-NETT (6388).
