2025 Grey Cup News

Taylor Swift should do it. She’s a fan of the old spaghetti factory. Jericho is way too fat now and gone mentally, it would be bad. However if he was there as part of a Manitoba or Winnipeg born kinda grey cup act with like i dunno, cfl so let’s say watchmen crashtest dummies and oh I dunno, Neil young or something.

Last year I asked myself, is there a rule that a half time show has to be music?

Go off the charts and bring in a high end comedian who does a set on football. 🙂

Bob Nelson, the football bit starts 2 minutes in, but worth watching Rodney do the intro, sure do miss him.

Its going back to the 90s but how about a Robin Sparkles comeback show. Imagine the whole stadium singing Let's go to the Mall.

George Carlin had a great bit comparing baseball to football.

She hasn't been sparkles in years.... She became Robin Daggers on the day that grunge was born, at the 1996 Grey Cup half time show in Hamilton....... Everyone knows which Tim Hortons they were in that day.

Blueberry Fritter.... Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Why not go old school and go Fred Penner. I’ve seen him in the hood recently as his son lives near by.

Drake or the Weeknd would create some buzz.

I feel like drake would be some what divisive due to the Kendrick Lamar stuff but that might put him into a more gettable spot. I’m not a drake fan but I think he’d be a lot better than what we are likely to get.

tho Fozzy itself isnt Canadian...Jericho is...and Winnipegger to boot.....thats my kind of music tho half people here prob have no clue....Bring him in for pre-game concert....

That’d be great. Maybe make him a master of ceremonies type deal. His chops on the mic are fantastic he could do a lot to drum up hype.

I feel dummies might be too niche. One hit wonder from what 25 years ago? Great guys though. 
 I thought about young, I doubt he’d do it. Personally I’d love that though. 
 

Headstones will always be my no1 pick lol. 
 I wonder if they go back to the guess who well again?

Fred Penner did half time recently and it rocked. Whole stadium singing along to the cat came back.

Except this time it'll be "the Thomas came back."

I'm leaving now.

So I'm the only one who listened to Sandcastles in the Sand and cried after each of the last three Grey Cups?
