Congratulations Rider nation! 18 years of waiting to hoist the Grey Cup have finally come to an end with tonight's 23-19 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in Grey Cup 2007. Tune in to News Talk radio for all the latest coverage!
The main event is upon us. The Bombers and Riders are ready for the 95th Grey Cup and like the two football teams , so are you. Here is what I will be watching when the teams hit the Rogers Center turf.
1. The 13th Man: They have brought their act to Toronto in full force. I think it will be a 70-30 split between Rider fans and Bomber fans this afternoon. Some say it will be 80-20 if not greater. We know how loud Taylor Field gets for a home game with 28-8 in attendance, what will it be like for the Bombers in a 53-thousand seat venue.
ITS TIME!!!!!! Its a day the Rider Nation seldom sees. Its the day they see their team in the Grey Cup. I kid you not, you can not go a block in this city now without seeing someone in green or sporting the Rider colours. I went to dinner at Wayne Gretzky's restaurant last nite and the place was packed with Rider fans who let those know if they couldnt guess who they were cheering for by breaking out into song every now and then.
All right folks... here is the thread to get the word out.
Are you throwing a Grey Cup party (that's open to the public?) Is your favourite watering hole doing something special for the big day? This the place to let everyone know what is going on and where.
And, if it's a little hard to find, throw in a Google Map too! (Just Google Search the address and click on 'Map', then on 'Save as Link' and copy and paste the link.)
