I know I've seen posts here with people asking to watch old Bomber Grey Cup games....well, the CFL has listened! Just saw this on their website:
https://www.cfl.ca/2021/01/28/first-installment-games-available-grey-cup-demand-portal/
They are releasing Grey Cup games to watch in segments by date (the list of dates is at the bottom of the page, but for those who wanted 2019, that will be available as of April 22nd). Right now, the Bomber games available are 1946, 1950, 1957, 1958 and 1959. There's a note that for some of the older games, it may just be a highlight reel.
I'm going to try watching one tonight. Those games are before my time, so it will be interesting to see how the game has changed over the years.
Grey Cup Presale just started for Riders season ticket holders, rest of CFL season ticket holders get access June 2nd. Presale code is GCRIDERS, so I assume it will be GCBOMBERS.
Got a ticket! Got a place to stay (though it's hard to find as Regina blacks out almost all the rooms to sell as packages - dislike), wondering what the Ubers or taxis are like in Regina during the Grey Cup festivities.
last Grey Cup in SK they had free shuttle buses running all the time. Never had a problem getting to festivities - it helped that there were a couple of nice brew pubs in walking distance ;D
General Party Pass sales start Sept. 6th!

Try Youtube if you want to see old BB GC games. I watched all games on YT beginning 1950. The only one missing was 1961, which I saw in person as a very young kid. Also attended 1965. Until now I had blamed the high wind for the loss. After seeing it again it looks like Grant's overly conservative play selection was the culprit. BB had the wind in the 4th Q but didn't take full advantage. Try Youtube, almost all GCs are there.

Those Shania ads sure have been frequent... and Suits has talked a few times about her in the booth. And she has a new album out. Last time that happened she was the halftime show. Might they be setting up another Shania? Would appeal somewhat to the SSK region, one would think.
I'm not a huge fan, but I wouldn't say no to Shania if I was going (which I might be).
Same with the Arkells. Maybe they split the show?

Do you think they will be staffed well, or will there be a very long wait. (In 2019 & 2021 I used Uber, except for after the game).
Honestly, no idea. Just posted it to help with other options.
In 2013 we left the large team parties, stuck our thumbs out by the stadium and got a free ride all the way home from a Grey Cup volunteer.

I wonder how many fans will make the trip from Toronto or Montreal. Flights are $1700.00 to Regina and not much cheaper to Saskatoon.
