Bag size limit etc?
I don't think it differs from any other event hosted at PAS
Yeah, I cant find the link but it said you can bring in any bag, it just needs to be able to fit under your seat.

nope, not allowed air horns in the stadium.
The "new" MTL horns are mouth-blown, and thus would be as allowed as any of the long blue horns WPG fans bring. The difference being, these horns are tiny and the high-pitched noise is soooo annoying. However, not as annoying as the hand-pumped horns banned this last off-season.
To be honest,
a) barely any MTL fans here, if the festival is anything to go by: the worst traveled fans in the league (shame!!)
b) I sat through the ESF in MTL and the horns were barely noticeable and not a concern for me. I wouldn't worry at all about them.
Yes, the rules seem to be the same as for any PAS game, except the stipulation your bag must be small-ish (under seat). I'm not sure who brings a bag bigger than that anyhow!
Single-serving chow is still allowed. No drinks.
Should be business as usual for 99% of us.

True. It's sad.
Sadder yet is all the support for the Red, White and Blue Jays who are as Canadian as the Stars and Stripes with a side order of salsa.
:(
There are s bunch of Als fans at the Cup. Lots of hard core regulars.
I am not going to give their fan base a hard time for not having a large as a representation as some of the western teams.
@Tecno knows 1st hand how much last minute flights are between Montreal and the Peg.
Rider fans can just hop in a car and be here in 5-6 hours.
I do believe though that where the league and airlines have dropped the ball in the last few years.
There should be an agreement where the official airline of the CFL adds a couple of flights at reasonable prices from the 2 participating cities.

Only if the league was that organized and accommodating. :D

Airlines too.
I guess GM could just showed up... :D
Oh well, liver is healthy.

What's truly sad is that there's no longer any passenger train service between Regina and Winnipeg (for those of us who like to travel like gentlemen).
:(

The GC guidelines I saw said no liquids of any sort. That may differ from normal PAS games. I thought the sealed water allowance was only for that one super hot 30C+ game...
They always make me empty my daughter's sippy cup every time I enter... Ya, because I'm using my young'n to sneak in clear water-smelling booze? We just refill it at the big water station in 200-level.
P.S. Really liked the GC Designated Driver program WFC did. Always easy for me!! It should be a year-round thing (the free pop I mean!).

Not dissing the every-cup regulars! I saw some at the cup. It's the general lack of travel desire amongst the "normal" fans. Besides the "regulars", how many extra showed up? Probably a dozen at most.
I talked with my Frenchie (MB Frenchie) friend about it and he says the Quebecers are "insular" and don't like to leave Quebec. I'll take his word for it, he'd know better than me.

No kidding. The first cup I flew to (2019 CGY) I was shocked that no flights were added when they were all pretty booked. I bet you could easily fill 2 275-seaters in 1 week with ~ $750ish fares. Arrive Thu, leave Mon. Advertise it at the end of the DF games.
From my now 5+ year body of GC experience it's the return flights on Sun night or Mon that are the killer. Such that it is usually best to come back Tue or Wed. That's what I did in MTL. Just make plans to tour the city like you would if there was no game.
