Fans get first look at the Edmonton Oilers new home, Rogers Place

Sat, Sep 10: The much anticipated opening of Rogers Place happened this week. On Saturday, the first members of the public will get their chance to get up close and personal with the Oilers new home. Nearly 60 thousand tickets were released for the open house and it sold out quickly. It wasn’t an easy road to get here as the city battled the wants and needs of the hometown team, an elusive billionaire who is a major part of the deal and the residents who questioned the whole deal.
