    Not sure if anything new is announced but the club released another article on fan day http://www.argonauts.ca/article/toro...urn-of-fan-day

    Sadly, do to last minute changes I'll be added to IR along with AV and AF87. Though not technically injured. If only it was on the Sunday. Argh!

    Man, is anyone from the forum going? Taking my 5 year old to his first Fan Day. I think I am more excited than him though.

    Not true. Well at least not since they built their new gym and parkade. Parking police are out every hour or so and people have been ticketed during practices all the time.

    I attended one practice at Erindale in 2012 and got ticketed.

    Anyway, I will be attending my first Fan Day at York. Look forward to the event!

    No they didn't. I used to think so until I found a ticket on my dash during 1 practice during the week.

    I think you're right about that. Fan day did have free parking. But I went to a lot of practices outside of fan day, and definitely had to pay for parking those days.

On the bright side, I managed to get a practice canceled in '88 when the Argos played Hamilton at the EX.

    Awesome AV ! - just awesome Argo fan attendance/support. Hope you can carry on this way.

    Thanks OV. I plan on keeping the commitment going for a very long time. I remember when I was 15, I was scheduled to pitch for my baseball team in a playoff game, but the Argos had their annual game during the CNE. Easy choice for me, went to the Argos game and my baseball team lost their playoff game.

    Mock game moved to Friday. Looks like I will be there then for the game.

    Fans can make it an Argos weekend by coming to the Double Blue Game, which has been re-scheduled to this Friday afternoon, and then returning to York Stadium on Saturday for Toronto Argonauts Fan Day, presented by the Toronto Sun, featuring a special fan-friendly practice! Saturday's Fan Day provides fans with a free, entertaining and interactive opportunity to meet their favourite Argos players, coaches, alumni and cheerleaders before the 2014 season. Join the fun for a chance to meet and get autographs from players, watch a special Double Blue practice, take part in exciting activities, interact with other Argonauts fans, and much more!
    Players take the field for Friday's Double Blue Game at 2:00 p.m., kickoff at 3:00 p.m., and the game will feature players participating in a scrimmage with the offence going up against the defence. Coaches will have plays ready for every scenario to keep up with the fast pace of the game.
    Fans can listen live to the Argos' first 2014 pre-season game on June 9 in Winnipeg on TSN Radio 1050, then see their squad in person for the first time at historic Varsity Stadium for the club's pre-game season home game on June 19. The Argos' regular season home opener is scheduled for July 5 against the defending Grey Cup champion Saskatchewan Roughriders. Tickets for all Argos home games can be purchased through ticketmaster.ca or by visiting argonauts.ca
    Here are the details for the Toronto Argonauts Fan Day:
    DATE: Saturday, June 7
    TIME: 12:30 p.m. - Fan Day begins
    1:15 p.m. - Double Blue Practice
    LOCATION: York Stadium at York University
    4700 Keele Street, Toronto, ON
    CAMPUS MAP: http://maps.info.yorku.ca/files/2013/02/KEELE_Map_Colour.pdf
    PARKING: Northwest Gate Lot, Thompson Road Lot and Arboretum Parking Garage
