After years trying to explain Rider Pride it became too frustrating. The great feelings were not understood by even the closest friends. A tangible was needed to help communicate some of the passion. If the accumulating items were displayed in a place for people to gather maybe Rider Pride could be understood and in 2004 Lobotomy Room was born. The name is from a 70’s SCTV comedy skit and was unique and fitting. It suggests a stress free environment where people can
completely relax and bask in the glory of those ever-luvin’ Roughriders.
Lobotomy Room started innocently enough, a few jerseys were hung, a logo painted on the wall, a big screen, a bar, a fridge, and we thought it looked pretty sharp. Then eBay was discovered and it snowballed after that. For four years straight, parcels were arriving three or four times a week as the search expanded to other forms of collecting.
It then evolved in a different direction and now serves another purpose - Preserving Roughrider History. |
