As part of the count down to 23 September we will reveal each week a ballot prize (tickets £1 each) that only those attending the event can win:

Week 1: A B&I Lions v Barbarians match programme signed by kicking hero and all round good guy, Leigh Halfpenny.

Another prize will be revealed next week.....

Well another week on, another prize revealed....

Last week it was the Baa Baas v Lions programme signed by Leigh Halfpenny (.....and Manu Tuilagi)

This week it's a book ..."Rampant Lions"...about the 2013 tour....edited (and signed) by BBC correspondent Ian Robertson

Nearly 90 tickets for the event on 23 September were picked up at the URSC information point at the Leinster match. If you haven't got yours yet, come along at the Glasgow match and collect.

That should devalue it by about 50%. :lol: If Hartley had put his scrawl on it, it would have to go on a nail in Trap 2.

The Lions & Baa Baas Night takes place on Monday 23 September at 7.30 at Ravenhill. Entry by tickets only – This event is now sold out.

Unfortunately due to Ireland squad commitments, Rory Best & Tommy Bowe have had to pull out of this event.  Tom Court and Jared Payne will still be in attendance and will be joined by Darren Cave, Craig Gilroy and Andrew Trimble.

UR and URSC apologies for any disappointment caused.

Nonetheless it still promises to be a memorable evening….with a Q&A, free food, bar facilities & ballot with great Lions & Baa Baas prizes.

When you say "Ticket Only" I'm assuming with a heavy heart that my URSC membership card no longer represents a ticket.

It would appear I shall not be with you after all. :roll:

Think they have limited capacity in the premium lounge Baggy so they hand out free tickets to URSC memebrs who present themselves at the URSC stand at the matches and use those to limit the number trying to attend. It has been like that for a while.

Good news: Darren Cave has been called into the Ireland squad next week's gathering with Joe

Bad news: Darren Cave has therefore had to pull out of our Lions and Baa Baas night

Jared, Angry Tom, Dancing Feet Gilroy & URSC PoY Trimby remain!!
