98th Grey Cup 2010

Pete, Joel, the twins, and I went to the Grey Cup on Sunday. It was quite the experience. The energy of the Rider Nation was infectious. However, the drunken idiot behind me wasn't all that fun. He was putting popcorn in my hood, smoking cigarettes, swearing all the time, and he fell on me. At one point, we were all standing because they were throwing mini-footballs into the crowd. Drunken idiot dove for a ball (it was nowhere near him) and fell into me, causing me to smash my knee against the hard plastic seat. Jerk. Anyway, overall it was fun, but I think I like the regular season games better. Here are a bunch of pictures:

Halftime was Bachmann and Turner from BTO:

I wanted to borrow their bags

The poor, poor Eskimos. At least the loss tonight to the Stampeders wasn't as awful as the last two times. These guys were sitting a couple of rows behind us tonight.



I took the twins and 2 of the neighbour kids (their first time to a CFL game). We still had a good time but we did leave a little bit early as it was a 7:00 pm start.
