I'm not sure that it is on opening weekend, but I do know, being an Oilers STH, that they are honoring them on Oilers opening night of October 25th.

Look for October 25th on that page.



Thanks, that's good to know. It's the first I've heard of it and I try to stay informed. I just thought with the significance and symbolism of Labor Day, it would have been a nice gesture to include something like this in this weekend's opening ceremony activities since we don't really have any Labor Day Parades or celebrations in Tulsa.

Watch the language. Also, in a thread meant to pat the workers on the back, saying it was just a group of illegal aliens is a negative comment.



Was just saying what I had heard, even on here once or twice. Wasn't stating as fact dingbat

I think it is cool that the workers are all getting free tickets to the first hockey game.

That will be one loud crowd and probably the biggest indoor sporting event crowd in state history.

We all should go and thank the workers.

Thats what Jeff Lund wants for the first game here vs. OKC. To beat the attendance record set last year at the Ford Center vs. Tulsa.
