    I have no affiliation with the FOA and I don't know how open they would be to doing a joint trip. I'm not sure what their numbers are currently like for their road trip this year. For Hamilton it maybe better to just try and get a block of group tickets and sit together vs. planning a bus as well since it is so close. It might be better to plan a bus/hotel/ticket package for Ottawa or Montreal but again you need minimum one coach bus load to get any sort of real deal.

    Probably better to keep it simple, get a block of seats and sit together, would be great to rally the Argofans crowd and let our presence be known!!

    You really want an impressive road trip to galvanize Argo fans, howabout a flight trip to Regina to watch the Argos and the Riders next season. That would be quite the atmosphere...imagine a summer weekend game on a Saturday night which would make it possible. This year the Argos are in Regina in the middle of the year this Saturday, last year was also a late season game in Week 15 or 16 I believe...(one of their biggest wins of the year). They've played in Regina in late July or early August many times, so next year they may be due for a game in Saskatchewan that early.

    Would love to if even just a few fans wanted to go and were willing to pay and commit, the atmosphere would be amazing...are you watching the Argo game from Regina right now...awesome.

    PS - I'd even go with a TFC fan if it means a great fan trip to Saskatchewan..lol.

    We'll have to wait and see what the 2014 schedule looks like but if you come out to a future ArgoFans.com event maybe we can talk about it then.

    I noticed the BC Lions have three excursions for fans this year called "Operation Orange", where you can join the team on the team charter plane, overnight to Regina or Winnipeg. $1000 includes flight, hotel, ticket, pre game meal with the team and even a personalized jersey.

    Wouldn't something like that be cool?

    It would be. Unfortunately that is not something we as fans can really put together, it would have to be the team.

    Last away game of the season coming up. Anyone got any outside viewing plans? Being sort of a basement Shoeless Joe's doesn't seem ideal for an afternoon game although we would probably get a few screens to ourselves given no competition. Or perhaps try a smaller place.

    It's not something I would go on. But if someone would go it may not be a bad idea to bring this idea to the team. I think their owner would be down for this if there was interest.

    Quite possible that Operation Orange was originally a fan idea.
