Sounds like you did much better than I did! I expected the Western Final to be much higher scoring.

Talk about going from the penthouse to the outhouse

Good luck to yas anyway, just not too much luck. Should be a good game

is it really that nice?? I saw the team salivating over your field house though.
It's Willy and 3 buddys going. Apparently I was not "COOL" enough to gain a invite. I think he knows his friends like me more than they like him. LOLOLOLOL
They have a offer for middle of the end zone row 8 for $50/seat. Trying to upgrade this AM to something better. Has anyone sat that low and at the end of the field? Can they see anything from there? Stamps by 10!

I sat exactly there in 2002 for the grey cup.
Terrible place to watch football from, and the stadium isn't set up to serve that section so great (longest walk to the bathrooms). But I was 20 years old, and I surely enjoyed myself anyway. If you can, try and upgrade.
This year I'm 80 rows up toward the corner.

I sent both it nice Canadian Emails explaining the situation and that I was sorry this was such a drastic drop from what they paid. I also reminded them of how many 1000s were for sale.

Get bent. The CFL is a great game. Can’t even compare it the NFL. Two different products. Love them both but hate when someone has to cut down the CFL for no reason.

Well it’s the athletes that make the game. The athleticism isn’t even close. That’s my reason for the statement.

And you Sir are wrong. 2 different games. Ever wonder why so many "Stars" of the NFL don't make it up here? I promise you that Tom Brady would fail here.

2 different games, 2 different skill sets. One set of MUCH MUCH better rules. Besides, have some pride of where you are from... SHESHHHHH It's attitudes like that, that are helping to kill our game.

Now go get a bowl of Chilli and a beer, sit down and watch the Stamps win it all.

I don’t usually give the Children’s football league the time of day but after watching 5 minutes and seeing 3 back to back to back dropped passes in last years grey cup final I decided I will continue my boycott of the worst professional sports league in NA. Narrowly beating out the NBA.

Keep complaining and not supporting our CFL and we won't have it. It's a great sport to watch and even better to play.

Your Stamps are definitely due! Hope it happens for them. Alberta needs some excitement in these parts for sure....

Just remember in the CFL we get 3 downs of football to move the ball 10 yards vs. the NFL 4 downs. If the NFL players are so much better why does it take them 4 downs to do what CFL players can do in 3 downs. 🤔

The athletes south of the 49th are bigger, stronger and faster. Doesn’t matter how many downs are played. They are better athletes..

Have the winner of the Super Bowl play the winner of the Grey Cup in a dome. 3 downs or 4 downs it wouldn’t matter. The CFL boys would get smoked.

Not if they evened out the payroll. None of the overpaid NFL players would show up for the game. 🤑🤑

Remember how much bigger the field is, end zone is half the size of the damn field. I’d to compare it to if the NHL used soccer sized nets.
