I'm looking for 2 tickets to the Grey Cup
I really can't afford it but I'm going to put this out there for you.

I can make matching CFL Adirondack chairs, team of your choice or even 100th Grey Cup ones. Cost of both chairs completed after my time, chair and paint is $700.00.

Or if you live in the GTA area I have a handyman business, will trade labour for tickets.

PM me with what you have or any suggestions.

Hello,

My name is Matt Llewellyn, and I'm a producer with CBC News, Toronto.

How's the ticket search going? I'm wondering if you would be interested in helping us with a news story.

We are looking for Argos fans who haven't been able to get tickets to Sunday's big game...

It shouldn't take very long, less than 30 minutes - and we could come to you.

IF you are interested... please email me matthew (dot) llewellyn (at) cbc (dot) ca.

Thanks a lot,

Matt.

DO NOT TRUST ANYTHING CBC SAYS, THEY WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET THE STORY OUT.

Hey Matt,

Thanks for considering this angle for all those fans who are really wanting to go to the game, but are being priced out by the gouging of 'resellers'. Not all of our fans live in the Greater Toronto Area, nor are they all season ticket holders who, by commitment, got first dibs on tickets. We have fans from everywhere in Canada, and across the world. It will be nice to see a positive story about the fever surrounding the game. Fpr those that can't go live, there are still places in town to join in groups like the Scotiabank theatre and street festivals.

Yesterday on one of the newscasts, they showed ads on-line that at first appeared to be for Grey Cup tickets but were instead for parking spots at SkyDome (and they were charging a lot). There was fine print at the bottom of the ads but clearly they were trying to fool people.

Have you been able to secure tickets?

What a joke, I spoke to the guy over the phone and told him my story. I was going to decline on the interview but he told me that he would make it worth my while. He said that if I went on it would be great for me because people would see my info on the news cast and if they were interested they could contact me.

WELL ALL THE SAID WAS TORONTO HANDY MAN

No mention of argofans.com, Facebook/callmrhandy or my business Call Mr Handy.

CBC will do anything to get a story out no matter what they have to do.

Any Post from Matt or anyone else will be deleted on this site.

I saw an ad on TradeBank Canada's Facebook saying you can buy it for barter. You will need an account though.
