The Prince George Cougars, in partnership with Indigenous Police Services, will be presenting Retro Weekend when they host the Victoria Royals on March 21st and 22nd.
The weekend will feature a Riley Heidt Bobblehead Giveaway, a Mega 50/50 Jackpot, retro jerseys, and the “Jersey Off The Back” giveaway.
The Riley Heidt Bobbleheads will be free for all season members, as well as the first 300 kids (aged 2-12) who are not season members through the doors on the Friday game.
The bobble heads can also be added to the ticket purchase at a 50 per cent discount.
Any remaining bobbleheads will be available in the Cougars Store for $30.
The final Mega 50/50 of the season will take place during the Saturday game with a guaranteed jackpot of $50,000. Proceeds will benefit the Spirit of the North Healthcare Foundation.
The team will be wearing specialty retro jerseys both nights, and will be raffled off the player’s backs following Saturday’s game.
These games could potentially have playoff-seeding implications for the two teams involved.
The Cougars (36-19-4-2) currently trail the Royals (36-15-3-6) by three points in the WHL’s BC Division standings. Victoria does have one game in hand.
