    Jim Proudfoot would have wanted proper
    coverage for the Star. I'm sure he would have been very 'proud' of this win.

    I have not looked at the star, I know I said earlier that I will not read it, but it was all that was left on my corner (and the Argos are on the front page), our Sun box still had Fridays' paper in it.

    Today's Star has a great selection of portraits of random CFL fans mugging for the camera. The Star set up a studio near Gate 6 and photographed and interviewed an eclectic group - real fans, Premiers, Rogers Center employees, people with funny hats, people with band instruments .... In the real paper there are some quotes that I think are missing from the web version, but kudos to them for this neat project.

    (note: i think that link might not be working. It was earlier. Try this one

    or buy the actual paper)

    Also check out this cool high-res image The Star made up of dozens of separate shots stitched together to form a gigapixel image of most of the stadium - you may be able to zoom in far enough to pick yourself out of the crowd.

    Unfortunately the photographer wasn't in the right position to get the band in the shot but he got most of the rest of the stadium. Pretty cool imaging.

    Those of you who have sworn off The Star might actually like to buy Monday's paper, there's some good stuff here.

    That's a cool idea, but unfortunately it seems to have missed a large swath of the west side of the stadium, including where I sat. Unless I'm somehow not operating it properly, I think my section (45-yard line in the 200s) is not visible at all.

    The headless and legless players on the field are kind of cool, though.

    Yeah, I wish he could have done this with the camera positioned somewhere else - maybe above one of the end zones - so he could have captured both sides better. Still a pretty cool effect.

    Bluto also had an out of body experience in his part of the panorama.
