No July home games and 4 October home games. Only 3 weekend home games.

[Neely2005]

No July home games and 4 October home games. Only 3 weekend home games.

Which means that our Home Opener isn't until August 8th!!!

WTF???

Here's the explanation:

With the release of the 2015 CFL schedule today the new season is soon upon us – just a little more than four months from now! Our 2015 home schedule has a number of highlights. We welcome the return of the Labour Day re-match on September 11 against Hamilton, we will see Ottawa play twice at Rogers Centre this year as we begin to re-establish the long-time football rivalry between the two cities, and 7 of 8 regular season home games will be played on either Friday night, Saturday or Sunday.
It is important to note that we are kicking off our regular season in Fort McMurray, Alberta at scenic SMS Equipment Stadium at Shell Place. While we are excited to participate in Northern Kickoff and help grow the CFL in other Canadian markets, we would like to provide you with an explanation as to why we have made the unusual decision to move a home game. There were limited available dates at Rogers Centre this summer due in part to the highly anticipated 2015 PAN/Parapan Am Games, as well as the Blue Jays schedule, concerts and other Rogers Centre events. In addition to those challenges, Canada welcomes the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup which has directly impacted available dates in most CFL markets in June and part of July. In lieu of these limitations, we began exploring our options and Fort McMurray and the Wood Buffalo Region in Alberta stepped forward and offered a location with a stadium that is both ready for CFL football and available. For this game, we have created a limited number of hotel and ticket packages for Argos fans from around Canada who wish to join us for the first regular season CFL game in northern Alberta. We encourage you to call your ticket representative for specific details, including pricing.
We are also pleased to announce that all season ticket holders, who are paid in full as of June 1, 2015, will be entered into a draw to win one of five trips for two to see your Argos play live in the Northern Kickoff! Each trip will include transportation to and from Fort McMurray, Alberta on the team charter, two tickets to the game, two nights hotel stay and $200 spending money.
Thank you for committing early as an Argonauts season ticket holder. Your package will now include:

> A ticket to the Argos’ home pre-season game at Varsity Stadium in Toronto > Tickets to eight regular season Argos home games at Rogers Centre > A ticket to a potential Argos home playoff game in 2015* > Two bonus tickets to the 2015 Home Opener on August 8 vs. Saskatchewan > Exciting benefits and quality service from your personal sales representative

*A credit will be applied to your account for future Argos ticket purchases in the event the Argonauts do not host a home playoff game in 2015.
Finally, Rogers Centre has informed us that they will remodel most of the seats in the 200 Level of the stadium this spring. The new seats will remain larger than the seats in the 100 Level, and those that had a cup holder last season will still have one included, but not all seats will be padded as they have been in the past. Seats in the Club VIP 200 Level Lounge in the South Endzone will remain padded.
The CFL schedule maker did a very good job of preparing this year’s schedule considering the number of major events being hosted in Canada this summer. As we considered available dates, we worked hard to ensure that the needs of our fans and our football team were put at the forefront.
Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you in the stands.

So since I have 2 Season Tickets does that mean that I get 4 "Bonus Tickets" to the 2015 Home Opener?

Just brutal. What happens if the Jays make the playoffs? I know its not likely, but you never know. We need to get out of the Dome ASAP.

Well so called Argo Hero from a few years back has totally turned out to be one very large TOOL! David Braley that is. He has screwed around for over a year now while the Argos sink. The last nail will surely be hammered in the Argo coffin very soon.

I had to just say WTFF when I heard the news about the Argos playing in that HUGE North American DEADZONE called Fort Mac. I wouldn't go there if my life depended on it. I'm surprised that Sh!tpit has a stadium. That in itself is a slap in the face to the Argonauts and it's fans. F this whole scene.

Braley you are one ....... .... ... ......

SAD SHITE indeed.


Oh and this will get people to fill the stadium on Augs 8th. hahaha. Grey Cup 100 seems like 20 years ago at this point.
