I became a CFL fan because my father was a CFL fan. He was born near Ottawa and was an Ottawa Rough Riders fan. I was born in Oakville in 1958 and became an Argos fan but I don't remember exactly when. The first game that I can remember watching on TV was the 1968 Grey Cup game. The first Argo game that I attended was in 1976 but the first CFL game that I attended was in Hamilton in 1972. My father never took me to a CFL game but he did take me to a few Queen's at U of Toronto games in the early 1970's since he was a Queen's grad and that also made me a fan of Canadian university football. The CFL was so popular when I was in high school (1972-77), that it was hard not to be a fan of the league.
