Brandon Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 The league sure is lucky that Ottawa made it into the cup.... if they drop the prices to something reasonable then they can get a whole bunch of Redblack fans to drive down for the day. wbbfan 1

And thats as a raps/jays fan. Ill never forget the bangwagon jumps and exoduses the franchise has seen. Still soo torn on who i want to win less. The stamps are soo douchy. especially BLM. But then the RBs winning with a sub .500 record as such a new franchise with our own futility makes me sick. Really wish some how both teams could lose. Noeller 1
bustamente Posted November 22, 2016 Report Posted November 22, 2016 (edited) Papered or not BMO will be full but CFL football is all but dead in the big smoke, going to take a big resurgence to get this franchise back to respectability and get the crowds back if ever Edited November 22, 2016 by bustamente

B-F-F-C Posted November 22, 2016 Report Posted November 22, 2016 has anyone heard how many tickets have been sold now that we know who the GC participants will be? You've got to think there would be at least a couple of thousand Redblacks fans that would make the trip to Toronto.

It was reported yesterday that it *will* be sold out this week, but that's going to include a fair bit of papering.

M.O.A.B. Posted November 23, 2016 Report Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) Really would like to see Elimimian (MLB) & Bass (WIL) combo... but that's a pipe dream. Also Westerman bros playing together... that's more possible though. Edited November 23, 2016 by M.O.A.B.
Dragon37 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Posted November 23, 2016 Burnham, Iannuzzi, Elimimian, and Lumbala please.
Blueandgold Posted November 23, 2016 Report Posted November 23, 2016 I'd take a run at Alex Bazzie if we have the money.
Jpan85 Posted November 23, 2016 Report Posted November 23, 2016 I'll get excited about 7 days before FA period opens most of these guys will be signed by then. Bigblue204, holoman and Goalie 3
bearpants Posted November 23, 2016 Report Posted November 23, 2016 Certainly the most intriguing players on that list are Iannuzzi (I'll never forget that he was drafted 1 spot after Jade Ettienne), Westerman and Elimimian... I would be very surprised if Elimimian does not re-up in BC... Tracker and Bigblue204 2

Rich Posted November 25, 2016 Report Posted November 25, 2016 http://www.ottawasun.com/2016/11/24/cfl-calls-illegal-procedure-on-half-baked-pizza-promotion-for-grey-cup-tickets Quote Sixteen Hamilton-area Pizza Pizza locations were offering 15 pairs of first-come, first-serve tickets to the Grey Cup at Toronto’s BMO Field for a paltry $30 in a package that also includes a three-topping large pie, 10 wings, four cans of pop and dipping sauce. Quote One lucky Hamilton Pizza Pizza customer reported, via Twitter, that he walked out of a store 10 minutes before the promotion was kiboshed with his grub, plus two tickets in section 117, each with a face value of $299. Quote “Although it may have been made with good intentions, (the promotion) didn’t have proper authorization,” stated CFL spokesman Paulo Senra in an email. “Once it was brought to our attention, we had the promotion pulled immediately.”
bearpants Posted November 25, 2016 Report Posted November 25, 2016 Why does the CFL have authority to do that?... If Pizza pizza owns those tickets are they not free to do whatever they want with them?? Tracker 1
Rich Posted November 25, 2016 Report Posted November 25, 2016 They probably got them for free from the league with "strings". No way they paid for them and are giving them away on a $30 pizza deal.
