More NHL Fan Abuse
Via Tom Benjamin, I found this item out of Vancouver about the Canucks' pay-per-view television package. Apparently, somebody thought it would be a good idea to advertise the package before cable providers could actually take any orders:
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT OUR DIGITAL CABLE AND SATELLITE SERVICE PARTNERS ARE CURRENTLY SETTING UP TO TAKE ORDERS FOR THE CANUCKS PPV PACKAGE THIS SEASON. WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAY IN HAVING YOUR ORDERS PROCESSED. WE ANTICIPATE YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER WILL BE PREPARED TO PROCESS ORDERS VERY SOON. WE WILL POST A MESSAGE ON THIS SITE WHEN THAT HAPPENS.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.
Patience? After a full year without hockey that's about the only thing NHL fans can't be expected to have a surplus of. For a tale of frustration authored by my own cable provider, click here.
