Wayne Gretzky on deck to open first Toronto Microsoft store

Sure, he is no Paulina, but a Gretzky IS a Gretzky, right? That could be what Microsoft was thinking when they decided to enlist the greatest hockey player of all time, Wayne Gretzky, and the rock band Train, to help kick-off launch festivities for the first Microsoft store in Canada at Yorkdale Mall.
Those interested in meeting the “great one” and getting an autograph/pictures, should mark down November 16th and 17th on their calendars. Oh, and you can pick up a new Surface tablet then, too.
As for getting to see Train, it turns out you’re going to have to do a BIT more than show up. Microsoft states: “The first 200 people in line for the Microsoft opening on Friday, November 16th, will receive two complimentary premier viewing wristbands for the Train performance on Saturday, November 17th.”
See you there?
