If your 50 inch HDTV at home just isn’t enough for you, then you’ll enjoy watching the Olympics on a fifty foot screen at Silver City Polo Park or St. Vital.

Cineplex has teamed up with CTV to give Canadians the ultimate Olympics viewing experience. There are two ways you can enjoy the Olympics at the theatre:

Single Day Admission Tickets
For $9.95 plus applicable taxes, you can get a single admission ticket to see the CTV Olympic Games Broadcast at Cineplex for an entire broadcast day, with complete in-and-out access

Passport Tickets

Tickets are on sale now at each theatre. You can guarantee that the best selling day will be the Gold Medal hockey game on February 28 which is followed by the closing ceremonies. Get your tickets before they’re all sold out!

Jersey Shore’s JWoww Coming to Winnipeg

Written By Stacey | No Comments
January 30, 2010

Jenni Farley aka JWoww from MTV’s Jersey Shore will NOT be coming to HiFi on January 23rd.  Instead she will be at Republic Nightclub on Saturday January 30th.

If you haven’t seen Jersey Shore, you are missing out on a pretty big craze. Personally I don’t think you are missing much more than a chance to lower your IQ.   JWoww seemed to be one of the more reasonable characters, that is until she threw a hissy fit and smacked The Situation. Honestly though, I would love to knock him out.

You can check out the facebook event here.

Shameless Self-Promotion: Winnipeg’s Funniest Person With a Day Job

Written By MikeG | 3 Comments

… Is me. I’ve taken time off from the glamorous life of an Access Winnipeg editor to grind away on the Winnipeg stand up comedy circuit. Last week all the years (months) of hard work bore some small growths one might call fruit: I won the Rumor’s Funniest Person With a Day Job competition. Here’s the video from my set that night. (Mild language disclaimer:I do drop some F bombs)

There you have it. Anyone who lol’d at the preceding clip can see me this Thursday at the Standard Tavern on Sherbrooke, it’ll be my first night hosting a show but I’ll still be doing about 10 minutes of material throughout the night. Entry I believe is 5$. Also on the last Tuesday of every month I do the Kings Head’s stand up comedy night, Shits and Giggles, part of their weekly Tuesday comedy series, The Free Laughs Comedy Series. Appropriately priced at FREE.
