Seeing only a couple of singles left on ticketmaster.
Nothing better than Friday night football in the summer.

Absolutely the best fans in the CFL!!!
No one else can sellout a stadium playing a 2-8 pussycat team.
The labor day classic is not even sold out yet!!! >:(
Go Bombers!
Go Bomber Nation!!!!
Its the return of Chris Jones that made it sell out...
Hold it...
LOL.
Great news! We're going early to set up the tailgate! Hope everyone not named Bo Levi has a great time.
This game is sold out?. Can't imagine what would happen if we played a real football team!!

Yeah, got to give it to Bomber fans. Doesnt matter what day of the week it is, who the opposition is or what the weather is like the fans continue to show up.
Maybe if we are lucky the league can give us an award like they gave to Rider fans. LOL

Buth wheel nevur sall oot duh Fried day gamz in summher cuz cottagez goerz!! derp derp
:o :o :o ;D ;D ;D :P :P :P
lol!!!!
No disrespect to the cottage goers. But this does somewhat disprove the myth, eh
I think many of the latter generation immigrants everywhere in Canada are not into the cottage country idea like prior generations in Manitoba. That could be part of it. Plus cottages are insane to purchase now so only the old timers mainly still hold onto them!! :) Can't even pass it tax free down to the younger generations although I am certain there is ways around that.
Poor suckers who left early and never saw the win...

Yup, they got MTL Miracled! They should know better! Maybe it was just the casual fans who didn't know any better? I hope DT on the 'OB really rubbed it in real juicy-like!!
;D ;D
If your retired, everyday is holiday and you have the flexibility to go to the lake any day of the week. So, weekend games are never a problem.

I was surprised that so many fans left early. Have they never seen a CFL game before. You never leave early in a one score game with 2 minutes to go. Thats an eternity in the CFL

You never leave early. Period.

Amen!! way back when I use to sneak down from the cheap seats to the better seats when folks left early. Back in those days a lot of games were sort of out of sight but it was still Bomber Football so the closer I could get the better.

easily 25% of the crowd left.
Quote from: GOLDMEMBER on August 24, 2024, 10:13:32 PMeasily 25% of the crowd left.
And in a sell out crowd, those are the ones who don't really care if we or lose. This was just their pre-game for Friday night.
I didn't see many "beat the traffic" fans... our section was full still... stayed in our seats until the end, then off to the pinnacle club for post game free appies, and then a wander out to the U lot and out in minutes.
Great game, great ending, overall great experience.
Only complaint, the Burger stall beside Shawarma Khan was very busy, but was cooking burgers from raw, but had no seasonings at all. Grilled onions in the burger grease and flat top crunchies, but zero salt. C'mon guys, is it that hard? Would have been an excellent burger if it wasn't so bland.

This aged very, very well. :-)
I imagine BLM thought he had stemmed the tide and reversed the Cats fortunes with those two second half TDs and FG. Mmmmm ... not so fast.
