Beer on the Corn Flakes. Excellent idea!
I am pushing hard for our minor league football team to take 100 tickets. Win-win situation. Argos have a great reimbursement program that I will match if they hit 100.
There's been no better time to showcase the Argos than now with the team that just finished the 2018 season. The team has momentum, will be back to full strength and a full house in a loud BMO Field could be the catalyst to launching the team to the 105th Grey Cup, while relaunching the Argos to relevance in Toronto.

I have two seasons and have got an additional 4 going plus more next week
I am pushing a bunch of friends to join me. I use my season tickets to expose different people to the Argo's at BMO. Every single one of them comes away with an appreciation of the great experience. I used all my flex seats for the same reason. It is too bad they are stopping that program because there is nothing like getting people in the seats at BMO to promote the game.
At the risk of beating a dead horse, I also have friends and family now considering buying tickets next year, as a result of us taking them to games using the flex tickets. I realize not everyone agrees but in our case the flex tickets have been an excellent marketing tool. Sorry to see it discontinued.
I just bought eight more tickets (for Riders and Ticats fans, admittedly). The east side lower deck looks pretty well sold -- I bought these eight in sec. 109 and there seemed to be only about 30 or so left in that section. Keep buying, everyone!

Yeah, that'd be nice...I've talked it up among friends this year, kind of a group thing, rather than a flex ticket here and there but could never swing it. I had hoped to try again next season. Though I doubt the people I'd take would ever but Season's, they would come again, with their own kids - I'm sure of that.
I’ll be there with my son, bringing a coworker who also 2 seats through my account.
Let’s see as much double blue in the stands as possible!
Good job Hogie.

I'm bring 4 extra people, who actually paid me for their tickets!!! There seems to be a bit of hype building from even NON Argo crowd for this game. People in my office who never talk football (NFL or CFL) are going too
Dave Naylor tweeted yesterday that the Argos have already guaranteed their biggest crowd of the season, and that was even before Saskatchewan was the known opponent. That is indeed good news, as it would mean that maybe 17k or more had been sold prior to Sunday (16,326 being their biggest in the regular season).
It's us vs the rest of the country
They sold 1600 yesterday. Got mine today.
GO ARGOS!!!
GO ARGOS!!!
I bought in 206 (east side) and you now can't get seats in the section below row 26. It's in the centre, and presumably they're selling from the centre out, but I still take it as a good sign that demand is filling the east side second deck.
Tickets are also near or above face value on StubHub, which is another positive indicator. Nothing below $19 USD.
On the whole, I remain optimistic.
Got 4 more today.... hoping for a big doubleblue crowd.... Thanks every one for pulling together.... Go ARRGOS !!!
My brother and I (with the help of a couple friends also), were able to put together a group of 22 for today's game.... we'll see you guys in section 220... we'll be the ones with the cow bells and vuvuzela horn!!! AAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGOOOOOOSSSSSS!!!
