In the hotel sleeping off some Van nightlife ... gonna get a late breakfast and then join the fan march escorting the Cup to the stadium. Thoughts and prayers to those of you at home stuck with Suitor.

Let's goooooooo!

My initial interpretation of this was you slept in a van last night

Break Arbuckle, Protect Collaros celebrate Grey Cup number 13.

Re: 15 beers... That's ******* amateur hour. C'mon. The old poster @Coorsmanused to compete with the team. I can't remember if it was a beer for every point or a beer for every score... But it was herculean at times. 

I'm generally a "not before Noon" guy, but on GC Sunday... Final game of the year.... Exceptions are made. 

We have about 8 degrees in AB (tho 60kmh winds) so we're in the yard playing cornhole with @DTonOB on the Bluetooth speaker and a TCB Bomber Beer in hand....

LFG!

Not football related....but Bo Levi really said there weren't many options for food in Wpg lol.

Winnipeg has fantastic food options. Outside of Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver I think it’s the best city to eat at in the country.

Back in the old stadium you could usually find me in section K with a blindfold on by the end.  Usually needed it during those years.

Pretty sure it was points.... which got dangerous considering khari and milt...

Yup, tonnes of options you just have to know where to find them some you have to open your wallet some are fairly priced.

One of those guys was a buddy in one of my university classes back in the day. He was a Safeway store manager at the time when they all went to Vancouver for the 1990 Grey Cup.

Watching the NFL as I refuse to watch TSN constantly telling me just how great the Argos are even without Kelly.

[greenrider55]

Here's a bold prediction... Tyrell Ford wins MOC.

[BaconNBigBlue]

A repeat of last weeks game in terms of intensity and execution and I'll be a happy man.  The added benefit is enjoying going to work tomorrow!
