2016 Grey Cup @ BMO Field

[Scooter McCray]

I know its likely decided already ... but I hope they don't under estimate the interest in the GC this year. It should be a home game for an Ontario team... that has something to prove. I think if they price the tickets correctly...there should be fans of one of the Ontario teams looking for last minute tickets... would be a missed opportunity if they don't have near 40 000 tickets to me ....

Agree with you. Chances are high it will be Toronto, Hamilton or Ottawa in the game, and those fan bases will each buy up plenty of seats to attend the Grey Cup with their team in it. Even Montreal would probably travel well to see their team in the game.

Hopefully, the Argos will have a good season in order to build interest as the Grey Cup approaches and that ownership does a better job of building on such interest than Braley did following the Grey Cup win in 2012.

Shouldn't the pricing have already been released to Argonauts Season Ticket holders? I was speaking to some fans of other teams and they were shocked that the pricing hasn't been released yet. Does anyone remember when the pricing usually comes out?

My bet is that they are waiting on exact seating structure to be finalized.

I actually emailed the league 10 days or so ago with this exact question , the CFL passed me off to the Argos and the reply I got back was by the 1st of June information should be out , I am a ssh with Hamilton so I expect Argo ssh's will have something before then .

P.S The Argo season preview press conference is taking place to-day at 1pm so maybe some news on tickets etc .

Thanks, I hadn't heard anything about that. It would be nice if they streamed this on their website.

Tickets for the 104th Grey Cup presented by Shaw, the first ever Grey Cup held at BMO Field in Toronto, go on-sale to the general public starting on Monday, August 15th at 10:00am ET.

But Toronto Argonauts’ season seat holders will have exclusive access to purchase Grey Cup tickets ahead of the general public starting on Monday, July 18 at 10:00am ET. Season seat holders will be able to purchase two Grey Cup tickets for every season seat they own.

“For being our most loyal fans, we are pleased to offer our season seat holders the opportunity to purchase Grey Cup tickets before anyone else,” said Sara Moore, the Chief Operating Officer of the 104th Grey Cup. “We encourage our season seat holders to take advantage of this opportunity, as we expect tickets for this game to be in high demand.”

Fans who are not season seat holders and looking to take advantage of this exclusive opportunity to purchase Grey Cup tickets before the general public can still purchase season tickets by clicking HERE

“The Grey Cup, returning to the grounds of Exhibition Place at the beautifully renovated BMO Field, is going to be incredible venue for the CFL’s championship game,” said Moore. “And now that our fans have experienced football at BMO Field, we can unequivocally say there truly isn’t a bad seat in the house. The sight lines for football are spectacular.”

Season seat holders from other CFL teams will have access to an exclusive window beginning on Wednesday, August 10 at 10:00am ET.

Tickets for Canada’s biggest single day sporting event start at $169 including taxes.

The 104th Grey Cup will be played on Sunday, November 27th at 6:00pm ET. It will be the first time the Grey Cup has been played at BMO Field, and the first time its been played on a grass field since 2002 in Edmonton. It will also be the first time the Grey Cup has been played on the grounds of Exhibition Place since 1982, where it was hosted 12 times at CNE Stadium.

I got this Email from the Argonauts:

Dear Season Seat Holders,
*
Thank you to everyone who has been in touch with us to purchase their tickets to the 104th Grey Cup at BMO Field later this year. The response from our season seat holders has been great. This has made it an extremely busy time for our ticketing office since the pre-sale started on July 18. So thank you as well for your patience.
*
We are pleased to inform you that we are extending the hold on your season seats for the Grey Cup until Friday, August 5 at 5:00pm. Unfortunately, due to how busy we have been, we have not been able to respond to everyone yet. By extending the deadline, this will ensure that we respond to everyone prior to releasing the hold on your season seats.

So with thousands of tickets still available, is anyone else feeling stupid for paying full price for Grey Cup tickets during the Argonauts presale?

yup. But what's done is done.

[Neely2005]

Dear Grey Cup Ticket Buyer and Season Seat Holder,

Thank you for purchasing tickets to the 104th Grey Cup taking place here in Toronto on November 27th. We can’t wait to see you at BMO Field.

We are reaching out to you today because we have timely and important news for you.

Tomorrow we are unveiling new Grey Cup ticket prices for some unsold sections of the stadium. *We are making this change because sports fans have told us they want to experience the iconic Grey Cup in the incredible new setting that is the Argos new home, BMO Field.

But they have also told us they need pricing that reflects the fact that is has been an unprecedented year in sports in Toronto with major events like the NBA All-Star game, World Cup of Hockey, a deep Raptors playoff run, the Jays playoffs, and the upcoming NHL Centennial Classic and World Junior Championships.

So, we are listening.

And since the price of tickets you purchased has now been lowered, we are offering you the opportunity to upgrade your seats at no additional charge. Plus, in consideration of these changes and as a gesture of goodwill to you as a valued Argos season seat holder, we are crediting $50 to your account for you to apply towards the purchase of your 2017 season tickets if you renew before Friday, December 23rd 2016.

One of our sales reps will be in contact with you shortly to discuss this with you.

Sincerely,
*
Toronto Argonauts

That's not bad for the lower end, but what about people who bought the higher ends ?
