I've sat deep in amongst the enemy @Mosaic 3 times now.  It's not so bad.  Never any problems, and kind of neat.  I suppose you could get a "worse" experience if you sat in whatever the equivalent of our North end zone is... or PIL Country.  So most "normal" sections of the stadium (i.e. between the 20's) should ok.

If you want to know where the biggest WPG contingent is sitting, we'll need the bus-junket guys to let us know what section they booked.  That'll be the biggest group.  They're usually in some corner I think.

It looks like I will be going after all as I got last-minute wife approval!  Bonus!  Winning!  I'll be doing the last-minute stubhub cheapo sale thing probably for tickets.  Apparently it's not sold out, so you can buy normal TM tickets too.

I expect the stadium will be more full than it was for the '22 GC, where there were buckets of empty seats as greenie fans wanted to avoid the cold, and the Bombers.  That won't bode well for bus wait times...

If you get tickets behind the Bombers bench area, you will be facing the sun for the first half.

Temp is supposed to be around 30 degree's, so bring sunglasses and stay hydrated.......not just beers!

Free shuttle buses to and from the game so don't drive.

Saturday night is always fun at all the city bars with a mix of Bomber/Rider fans.

$5.00 beers start three hours before kick-off.

See you at the game.

Regina's annual mini Grey Cup weekend.....sounds like a fun weekend.   In my first Grey Cup ever in 2019 I met and partied with several Rider fans.  In particular I remember this older couple who were at their 36 consecutive Grey Cup game.....true supporters of the CFL.   They were rooting for the Bombers at this one so we were on amicable terms.    They were from Climax Saskatchewan.....I was sitting with two other guys from Seattle who started coming to the Grey Cup over 10 years ago and preferred it to the Superbowl mainly because of the fans and the celebration it was.    They asked the question, "so what do you do for fun in Climax"?   They simply smiled....and laughed!   They were a great couple and great fans of the CFL.
I might have to add the LDC to my bucket list along with the Banjo Bowl.

LDC is going to sell out.  And the greenies actually want to show up... I know because the resale market for tickets is very sparse.  Almost no resale for under face.  The TM first-sale map is almost all sold.  Very strange for a CFL game.

Usually cheaper stuff starts showing up around now but it's not happening this time.  I bet SSK football club is happy they won their last game: that probably got fans hyped to actually buy tickets and show up in the hopes they won't lose vs WPG like they have for a few years in a row now.

I'll keep an eye on things up until game time.

I expect to see a ton of WPG fans there!  Enough to make some noticeable noise, like last year.
