A Guide to a Saskatchewan Rush Game!

The Saskatchewan Rush just had a major rebrand last year, and their new logo and jerseys are AMAZING! The new logo represents a new era of Rush lacrosse, and most importantly it reflects on Saskatchewan and Treaty Six Territory. Be sure to get your merch and show off your Rush pride by visiting the FEZ before a Rush game or the Rush Team Store at SaskTel Centre. They have so much great merchandise, like jerseys, scarves, and hats. Dressing the part amps up the energy and makes you feel like part of the action! 

The Rush Games are like no other; the atmosphere is SO fun and electrifying! From the music to the fans, it is a riot for everyone! The Rush team does a great job with engaging commentary (sometimes they even bring in a guest celebrity host), interviews, and fun on the jumbotron during breaks; make sure you are watching, though, because you never know who you might see on it!

This year, the Rush has exciting new things, like tattoos! Yes, you read that right. Saskatoon’s Headrush Tattoos will be set up every home game so that super fans can get a Rush tattoo and, for the littles, a temporary tattoo! The games will also be serving Really ‘Effin Good Bison Burgers at the Classics Concession at the top of section V, and because it was a huge hit last year on St. Patrick’s Day, they will be serving green beer at every home game! Also, be sure to follow their socials, as EVERY game is a theme night, and dressing up is encouraged! Some theme nights they have done are Super Hero, Las Vegas, Western and more!  

Okay, if there is anything I can leave you with from this blog, this must be it!! You are probably thinking, don’t we clap and cheer? Well, yes, you aren’t wrong, but there is something else you need to do. If you have seen the movie Wolf of Wall Street, there is a cameo that Mathew McConaughey does, where he hums and pounds his chest. Rush Nation has picked this up as a tradition since their first season, and when the Rush score, everyone cheers and screams, fans jump to their feet, and the song plays while you hum, cheer, and pound your chest! It is such a fun moment for everyone, including the kids! I usually hit my chest so hard because of the adrenaline, but it is worth it! Now you know, so no excuses for when they score!
