Yep. I couldn't agree with your last statement more. I'd love for Vancouver to attract more high profile events/activities, even if some of us may not be fans of that sport/event. I'm all for Vancouver being more "higher profile" with regards to events, and sports. I personally think UFC is eventually going to happen in this city. UFC is just too popular for it not to happen here, and like the article that Locked In had posted, the police are worried that if the sport is not sanctioned, eventually it would go the underground route - that would just make things worse, in my opinion. Does anyone know when they are to decide whether to allow the UFC event in the city?
