    AngeloV, looks like the game will be TSN 1050 if it happens.
    Is the game on Monday June 9 in Winnipeg still being televised by TSN?

    According to cfl.ca, tsn.ca, and my digital TV guide, it is still being televised.

    Thanks T-Bone. I was figuring it would, but even if it wasn't I'm sure I could have caught the Cats broadcast.

    That sucks. I had arranged to get a drive on Saturday and at least watch the mock game, but now that is out the window. I don't want to go to the Saturday event because I just can't move around and mingle right now, which defeats the purpose of going to such an event.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    Ya, I don't know why whoever wrote the Fan Day article decided to only mention:

    Fans can listen live to the Argos' first 2014 pre-season game on June 9 in Winnipeg on TSN Radio 1050

    Probably because they play a pre-season game against Winnipeg on Monday.

    You need to post more often on here, AD. BTW, is the CFLZone site dead? I can't access anything on there.

    No Pinball, no Argo alumni, little merchandise for sale. Fans were not allowed onto the field. I must admit I was disappointed for the first time about Fan Day.

    Being allowed on turf may have been up to York University. They didn't allow our football practicum to use the new turf even though students are the ones who paid for it. Our instructor, former York U coach Tom Gretes finally had enough and had us sneak in.

    No alumni? Not even Nick Volpe? Pinball and Volpe used to be the regulars. Not surprised about the merchandise.

    I figured it was Yorks decision about the field access. No, Nick Volpe was not there either.

    I just got home from Toronto, it was fun. This was my 3rd fan day event and my friends' first one... He had fun even though we got burnt to a crisp. Really a shame that they didn't have the xxl kackert jerseys on hand.
