Dallas Jumbotron strikes back Part Deux

Once again the city of Winnipeg was the focus of attention for the folks running the jumbotron at the American Airlines Center this evening.

Unlike the last time they faced off against Winnipeg back in December (and didn’t appear to know too much about the city) now they have done a bit more research.

Tonight’s fact about Winnipeg included;

1)  It lies at the geographic center of Canada
2) Nearly 100 languages are spoken in the region;
3) Boasts an impressive Museum for Human Rights;
4) Winnipeg averages 2,727 hours of sunshine per year; and
5) Winnipeg doesn’t take jokes very well.

So is this list better than the last one?  Impressed?  Not impressed?  Prefer to see the Furries?

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
