MEDICINE HAT, AB – His voice has been missing from the radio this season but long-time Medicine Hat Tigers play-by-play man Bob Ridley is still the minds of fans and the organization.

The team will pay tribute to Ridley prior to Saturday’s game at Co-op Place.

In a Facebook post the Tigers say they’ll unveil a special banner in Ridley’s honour and hand out a limited number of commemorative cards.

The doors open 6 p.m. and the presentation will take place shortly before 7 p.m.

Following the presentation the Tigers will take on the Lethbridge Hurricanes.
