We did it, fans. Our first serious push to bring an NBA team to Vancouver was a hit. If you were part of this, you were heard. Congratulations, you deserved this.
A list of our accomplishments include:
- Several radio interviews of Kat (and organized by yours truly), on CFOX, CKNW, CityNews1130, and more.
- TV spots on Global News, CTVNews, CBC News, and Sportsnet.
- Every major newspaper in the country, including The Province, National Post, Vancouver Sun, Vancourier, and even the Dallas Morning News and Mavericks.com!
- Many smaller newspapers also covered us, shout out to Hope Standard, Burnaby Now,
- Major blogs covered us including NarCity, Vancouver is Awesome, Daily Hive, had two articles, Basket USA, and Along the Boards.
The support was absolutely overwhelming. Kat, we did it. Jaymo, we did it. Everyone else in that coffee shop on Broadway last month, we did it.

With all the press coverage, Kat on Global News live in studio (see below!), and media showing real interest in this message, these chants mean ten times more. This is the sound of the people, not the press, and all 17,000+ of us that were there, telling the world directly what we want.
Speaking of Kat on the news :
What a ride, and we’re just starting. The next few weeks will be quiet on the NBA to Vancouver front, but do not worry. There are plans coming up for an away rally and to help rebuild a dilapidated basketball court in downtown Vancouver!
