BEST FANS IN THE LAND! Damnm this gin tastes mighty fine.....quenching 29 yr thirst... .

Harris wins both awards. The media that snubbed him can choke on it

I wasn't the most popular kid in elementary, middle years and junior high. Football, and the Bombers were one of the few things the gave me joy. I broke my wrist in 2000. My mom got me season tickets as a "pick me up" because my summer was essentially ruined. I had them for 8 years before moving temporarily. I was in grade 9 in 2001. I cried when they lost. 2002 - We lose Milt on the last game of the season. We lose Charles Roberts on the first play of the west final. 2003 - No Milt for the playoffs again. Kenton Keith runs the ball down our throat. You can see times are changing. 2004 - Lyle Bauer does his first sabotage job canning Dave Ritchie 2007 - I fully maintain given we lost by 3 points, with Ryan Dinwiddie throwing 3 picks, that we beat the piss out of the Riders if we had Kevin Glenn that game. End of 2008 - Lyle Bauer sabotage job 2 The next few years, ugly as a whole, even if we did somehow make it to the dance in 2011. Slowly got better under Walters...even if there were bumps along the way. Etch a Sketch defence. Kuale. Choking in the west semi against BC. Continuing to be owned by Calgary. Not able to get over the hump. But finally. It's over. And more tears were shed last night. And all of the dumbfounding decisions of era's past, and heartbreaking losses don't matter. Beautiful.

Some folks here have known me nigh upon 15 years. During this time we've had our wars and a fair number of laughs. But I am genuinely happy for you today. There are many posters here who never got to experience a championship and I hope you enjoy the hell out of it. Obviously I'm thrilled that Hamilton didn't win... the few thousand of them who come to BMO to watch their games are pretty insufferable as it is... but if they could actually win? It would almost be too much to bear. THANK YOU OSH for sparing us that fate. There are things that you (Bomber fans) and I (a Prophet of Double Blue) will disagree on sooner than later (and you can likely imagine what specific thing I refer to)... but we will save that for another day while you bask in your Glory and I bask in my Relief.

To all the fans who saw their first Bomber Grey Cup win.... Welcome to the club. We've been waiting for you to join us for a long time. That wasn't just a win. It was total dominance. One of, if not the most lobsidded Grey Cup victory in recent memory. Now, onto figuring out how to repeat next year. 😁

Really happy for Bomber fans out there 👍 Congratulations from a disappointed Ticat fan. You wiped the floor with my Cats.

You can’t win a Grey Cup with Ritchie Hall. You can’t win a Grey Cup with Paul Lapolice. You can’t win a Grey Cup a cup with Mike O’Shea . You can’t win a Grey Cup with out a passing attack, heard that a lot around here the past few years. Looks like you can!!!!!

A very close friend of mine and a huge Bomber fan passed away earlier this year. Thought about him all game. THEY DID IT LLOYD! Never prouder of the Blue and Gold.

13 points given up per game in the playoffs. 5+ takeaways per game. At least one critical turnover on downs in each game. 2x in the Grey Cup!

Despite how stressed I was the entire game, the cats were never really in it.

Congrats. Well earned. To the victor go the spoils.

As sweet as this victory is, I'm cheering with: -Terrence Edwards -Chris Armstrong -Clarence Denmark -Charles Roberts -Yvenson Bernard -Doug Brown -Barrin Simpson -Milt Stegall and last but not least, Matt Nichols, who brought us here. Thank you Matt for bringing us here, and thank you Zach for carrying the sword when Matt couldn't.

My 24 year old son just saw his first grey cup win

That was just a fkn dominant hungry performance - love seeing Harris on stage telling everyone to stick it

With all due respect...

Could not have gotten here without Matt Nichols. His leadership marked the change of course for this organization towards the right direction, in 2016

Another first:

Don't post much here, but would like to share a few things about what tonight's Blue Bomber Grey Cup victory meant to me, if that's ok. Some info to put it into context... - had a car accident in January. No one was hurt, and 0% my fault, but my car was written off. Had to buy lower quality vehicle with the settlement. - spent nearly two weeks in the hospital with a nasty leg infection. - engine blew out on my above-mentioned new (used) car. Ended up S.O.L. on that one. - got another new car and got into another accident less than two months later. No one was hurt, but I will admit to being at fault for that one. Just a brain fart on my part. My bad. Had to buy another car. - my mom, who let me move in with her 16 years ago, when my divorce cleaned me out, is moving into a nursing home at the end of this month, i.e. the end of this week (cue jokes re: grown man living with his mom, not to worry, no offence will be taken). What with the packing, searching for a place to live, plus the arranging of two moves, plus searching for three new (used) cars in one year, a hospital stay, and this being the last Grey Cup we'll watch under this roof, and all that upheaval and stress of this whole ***ing year... well, my mom and I had a good cry (good tears!) and a good hug and we both let out a loud WHOOP! when Zach took that knee at the end of the 4th quarter! Anyways... Cheering for a sports team may seem meaningless in the grand scheme of things, but, at least for me and my mom and my brother and sister and their spouses (all of us life-long Blue Bomber fans), tonight, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers winning the 2019 Grey Cup means... well... everything. I love the Blue & Gold, win or lose, but needless to say, I❤my Winnipeg Blue Bombers now more than ever! Congratulations to the 2019 Grey Cup Champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers! What an amazing game! Congrats to Andrew Harris! And thank you!🏈🤗❤ Having said that, as Tyrone Jones, James "Wild Wild" West and the rest of the Blue Bombers once said back in the day... WHO GOT 'DA CUP? WE GOT 'DA CUP !!! Thanks for indulging my rant. Smiling now like I haven't in a long time! 😁👍🏈

Who knew what we needed to win a Grey Cup was having a German on the roster.

The Bombers of July showed up in November now are Champs

Fatboi gets it first... that’s awesome too

Congrats to the Bombers. Great job! I couldn't be happier tonight.

Wow that’s epic proportions amazing. But I got say I teared up when I saw Hall crying on the field. After everything he went thru this year. The emotions must have been pouring out. Was so happy for him last night.

I doubted this team. I thought they couldn’t win with this offence. I think most of us had significant doubts going into the playoffs. I could not be happier to be wrong. Above all else, I am a Bomber fan. Nothing is sweeter than this.

I'm almost certain Andrew Harris has been immortalized here in Winnipeg forever because of this. We've witnessed the formation of a legend tonight

Yes, we can, it's standing to her right.

he's just solidified himself into Bomber all-time status...well done!

FTR, quite a few people thought they saw me on TV during the game (I must have dopplegangers...ha ha...) but this was our only appearance. L-R: Noeller, Mrs Noeller, wessmitty and 17to85

I've decided that I now like the trade for Collaros. I'm giving this one a thumbs up!

Jake Thomas pure beauty

Three stars is everyone of who have stuck it out 29 years for this night and this team!

The 1984 Grey Cup was sweet but this is by far for me, the sweetest Grey Cup win. I never thought I'd have to wait 29 years which is why it is so extra special . I went from a young man with a young family to a senior with a new knee between wins. I truly thought I'd never see my team ever win another. Thank you to all the Blue Bomber players & coaches for making all our dreams finally come true.

Owned the Ticats tonight, the way we owned the Riders and the Stamps.

Happy for y'all.

Is this why we love the guy?

Did You Know The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are Grey Cup Champions!!! Just in case anyone missed it.

In true Winnipeg style 😂

And this isn’t a tragically hip song but this is the first grey cup in my life time. I cried infront of my Vietnamese gf she didn’t quite get it but she knew it was a big deal. I’ve watched hundreds of games in my life time. A lot of them were disappointing. It all came down to this. Grey cup champs!! 2019!!

Just witnessed my first ever Bomber grey cup win. I was born on November 27, 1990, two days after their last grey cup win. I'm extremely happy for all us fans. See everyone at the parade! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

1 Harris the real mop and MOC this year 2 DL. Ferocious bone jarring night of pressure. Best ever play off defense. 3 Medlock. 6/7 FGs great punting and kick offs. And honorable mention to every other player this year. HH. Hansen with the murderous hit on kick coverage

First time poster,long time lurker.I was at the '90 grey cup..didn't think I'd wait this long for another one!!.We've heard about the bend but don't break D...today we saw the bend and break D...we broke Dane...we broke frankie...and we broke Speedy B! Grey Cup champs Baby !!!!!!

My Dad took me to my first game in 1988. I remember 88 and 90. We've had season tickets for 20 years. I often wondered if he and I would get to see another Grey Cup win. He's had some health stuff this year but getting to watch the Bombers end a 29 year streak with him at home is a memory I will cherish forever.

This team checked off a lot of boxes: 1. First playoff win at McMahon Stadium in 54 years. CHECK! 2. Avenged the 1972 Western Final loss to the Riders. Forty seven years. CHECK! 3. First Grey Cup win in 29 years. CHECK! CHECK!! TRIPLE CHECK!!!

I think Winnipeg really needed this. So much negative crap lately. What a moment

Real men cry especially bomber fans tnite. Legendary
