There were a few of us Bomber fans out on Saturday but I'd say less than the exhibition game. Anyone from the forum make it out? If so what did you think? I'm gathering thoughts and opinions so I can rank the league's venues on my blog. IGF is definitely #1 based on my experiences. The fans were really rough (on blue and gold jerseys) early on but it got better once they were seated. Always tough visiting the enemy but the blue collar Hamilton fans can be quite aggressive. If you thought old CanadInns was bad at least you didn't have to wait in line to use a dirty porta-pot. There's also only one place to buy beer on each side of the stadium. You can get Canadian, Coors or Keystone light for $9 each (just under a pint). I guess that's a buck cheaper than domestic at IGF. It has a great tail gate atmosphere though which is something Ivor Wynne stadium never had. The staff are also really awesome and actually treat you like a human. Oh, plus they let you buy two beers a trip... My thoughts (rant) on the game and the stadium /w some pics: http://www.bluebastard.ca/?p=293 (warning: insults from Hamiltonians quoted verbatim). I'm hoping I can do a full review of it later so those living in MB can see just how good they have it. Go Blue!
