Hey there, time traveller!

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers had a less-than-impressive CFL season but the club is hoping fans have seen enough progress and will show their support in 2015 – and embrace the beer snake, again.
The football club has started its season ticket renewal process. The Bombers say all renewing and new season ticket members will have the opportunity to secure their seats for the Grey Cup in 2015 at Investors Group Field.
The commitment deadline for the 2015 campaign is Dec. 15, with an early bird draw happening Dec. 1.
Next season, the club is reconfiguring eight sections in the stadium, but season ticket holders who find their seats in new price sections will still be charged prices from their original pricing categories as long as they own the seats.
The club says there will be a small increase in prices, ranging from 50 cents to $2.05 per game, with P5 season ticket members seeing no increase in their tickets. The average increase will amount to 2.11 per cent. Season Ticket prices range from $23.14 to $99.27 per game.
“The increases are necessary due to increasing operating costs of the club, most notably in football and facility operations,” said Wade Miller, president and CEO of the Winnipeg Football Club.
The Bombers have announced the return of a “Section S” style area, called the Fanatic Fan Zone in Sections 140 and 141. The Fanatic Fan Zone will be a place for the loudest fans, those who stand on their feet the whole game and always dress in Bomber gear from head to toe. This section will see a reduction in price by $50, making it more affordable to sit in the lower bowl.
The Fanatic Fan Zone will also see the return of the beer snake. This will be the only section in the stadium where beer snakes are allowed.
Season Tickets in the Fanatic Fan Zone will cost $338.50.
