    Opening Ceremonies, Celebrity Kick-off Game
    There was trash talk, ringers and an eventual 5-3 victory for Borderrock's The Goat at the now traditional celebrity game that kickoffs the Green Cup.

    In 2012, the celebrity game returned to the out of doors. With the out of doors came snow as the game wound down.

    Vocal fans cheered the staff team and might have been heard to chant "WAYNE FM" and also did the wave.

    Thanks to both teams for a great start to the 2012 Green Cup.
