News Tidbits:

• It has to be one of the strangest things I’ve ever seen marketed and it isn’t an April Fool’s joke, although I do wonder. Boston Pizza is marketing a ‘bold’ new scent that is said to capture the essence of a hockey locker room, post win. Today they’ve launched Champion Room Spray, intending for purchasers to spray this around with a room spray that blends notes of bubbly champagne, Canadian lager, used hockey pucks, and the undeniable musk of sweaty hockey gear. I, along with many other hockey fans would love to see the Stanley Cup come north, it has been way too long gone south But, I’m not sure about that particular scent in my livingroom… If this is indeed your fav scent, you will have to find a friend to ship a can to you, it is only available in Toronto, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Kanata at one location.
