January 5, 2005 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Edmonton Road Runners News Release
It will be democracy at its finest when Edmonton Road Runners fans vote to determine the next hair colour of Road Runners defenceman Rocky Thompson.
Fans attending the Road Runners games against the Rochester Americans this Wednesday (January 5) and Thursday (January 6) at Rexall Place will have an opportunity to cast a ballot in favour of their favorite hair colour. The ballots will be tabulated and the most popular colour will be adopted by Rocky and debuted at the Road Runners game January 12 against the St. John's Maple Leafs.
Thompson has sported both blue and red Mohawks to date this season.
"I have no reservations placing my hair's fate in the hands of our fans," said Thompson. "They have been extremely supportive of our Club and I have the ultimate confidence in their ability to choose a suitable colour."
The Road Runners will select one ballot at random and award the fan a hair styling package for four plus four tickets to the January 12 game against the Leafs.
Tickets for all Road Runners January games, including Edmonton Sun Family Packs, are available at all Ticketmaster outlets or by calling (780) 414-GOAL (4625).
