Hockey Hall of Fame "NHL Fan Days" Mean More Bang For Your Buck... (NHL)

This is less about "Do or Die" than it is "Bang for Your Buck". Should you be planning a trip to the Hockey Hall of Fame this summer and have some flexibility with dates, you may find yourself heading home with more than just the insane amount of historical, visual, and interactive overload any hockey fan is guaranteed to leave with on the typical visit...

For the second consecutive year, the Hockey Hall of Fame, in conjunction with the NHL and Upper Deck, are holding "NHL Fan Days" across July and August, with each of the 30 NHL franchises getting a day in the spotlight! The extras kick in the second you hit the door, with the first 1,000 guests receiving a FREE game-worn jersey card of that days team goalie! On top of that, how about considering this a "Buy 1, Get 1 Free" visit, because not only do you have entry for that day, but you also receive a pass for a return visit when the team plays the Leafs in Toronto during the 2014/15 season! Finally, come for your visit sporting the team of the day colours and you've got yourself a 25% discount on that team's merchandise in the Hockey Hall of Fame's store!

If this weren't enough, certain teams will be receiving little extras courtesy of the parent club! So far, both the Habs and Blue Jackets will be offering some extra swag for people attending their days, while the Flames, who held their day on Monday, offered up a free pancake breakfast, along with a T.J. Brodie/Jamie McLennan autograph signing. More events of the latter nature may be coming down the pipes on subsequent days, so let's stay tuned!

For fans of the teams whose dates have passed, I know when I went last year, cards from previous days were available for purchase in the shop were any remaining. I can't guarantee this is the case this year, but it is something to explore if you want to get your hands on them.

Here are a few examples of the nice cards you can land throughout this promo (tried to embed, but it's a pain to do from my iPhone! Anyone with hints on how to do this, I'd appreciate them!):
