Did you go to the event James? And if so, did you manage to get another token?
No, I decided to stay at home and watch this one live on an internet feed.
At UFC 70 all I managed to get was a pic with Eddie Bravo
At 75, they didn't even let me take my rangefinder (camera) in! And I was in the middle row of the main tier whereas previously I'd always paid full whack for front row seats.
Just think of it this way - until April you've managed to get, with that picture, more direct contact with the UFC than the majority of Canada.
Hopefully things will now improve for you guys.
Back in the days when UFC first came to London, UFC (and MMA in general) videos were real hard to get hold of in the UK. Stores here had UFC 1-5 on VHS and two or three other random events.
At UFC 38 I had Dana White autograph the third page of the program where his photo and message to the fans was printed. Tito Ortiz signed the page featuring him kneeing someone in the jaw and then I saw another huge fighter walking around and asked him to sign my program. I had no idea who he was until he signed the front page of the program and wrote in capital letters underneath it:
"UFC HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP"
It was Josh Barnett. I still wasn't sure who he was at this point because I couldn't read his signature!
Anyway remembering all that makes me appreciate all the access we (in the UK) have to UFC and other MMA events now.
