Attendance

Not being quiet at all but for the pro Thursday fans, perhaps we have a first place showdown, a 100k 50/50 start, and a long weekend where the cabin crowd still gets their 3 nights away for every Thursday summer game
and we will fill the stadium.
As I have said before a couple Thursdays okay and hats off to the Bombers for making this one work.
All the stars aligned for this game to have a good crowd.

1st place showdown a factor no doubt

Montreal game is close to a sell out.

Banjo Bowl is a sell out.

I'm expecting the Toronto game (friday night) will be close to a sell out.

Edmonton game?

I don't know if it was mentioned but there was a lot of police and firefighters at the BC game. They definitely helped the attendance that night. I assume they got tickets at a discounted rate. I saw a number of people from other countries at that game and were treated to a fun CFL game. Maybe we got a few new fans and merchandise sales probably benefited that night.

I was looking at the ticket sales for the Argos game on the 29th.

There are maybe 1000-2000 tickets left with two weeks left to go. Looks to be a sell-out.

Biggest game of the year - league wide.

Huge FNF showdown at IGF on the 29th. That place is going to be a madhouse!

[Sec223]

25000 maybe for the Elks

[GOLDMEMBER]

I would say less than 1000 tickets left for the Toronto game

Argos are a very good team. The BB better have a game plan on how to deal with Kelly, Oulette and the Argos receivers and defence.

True but they can also sew up first place before we meet them....With 1st place sewn-up and no byes we may not see the best Argos team....

Oh, you can BET we will see their best, regardless who has clinched what.  This is a GC preview, there is no better way to prep for that than to play us full out...

Ah, it must be nice to be an E team.  Weaker opponents, less opponents, and locking up 1st with 5-6 weeks to spare.  That's why I look at TOR's record with a big grain of salt.

I still think WPG, as the caught-in-the-middle team should alternate divisions: odd years, west; even years, east.  Until the 10th team arrives.  After all, how many years did we spend in the E?  Not like it would be something new.
