Royal Agricultural Winter Fair was a staple for elementary school skids in Toronto in the 60s. Whew that odor.

Guess its thirty-four years between post-seasons meetings with Ottawa.... and "‘It will take an act of God to beat us on Saturday,"

I recall Ottawa LB Bruce Holmes was suspended for that game for a hit in Argos QB Ricky Foggie IIRC.

My Ticketmaster/Calculator/Back-of-Napkin maths have us over 18k right now

EDIT: my sophisticated guesstimate is based on BMO having a 27,558k capacity in football configuration (per ticketmaster chart), the upper east being about 8,434 (per wiki) and ticketmaster showing 853 unsold seats as of this edit... So 18,271 at 10:07am on Friday...

So with 30 hours till the cannon goes off and 853 seats to sell, looks like we won't have any in the upper east (unless they open it in anticipation of a few thousand walk-ups.

With 48 hours to go and decent weather hopefully they can move the remaining tickets to sellout entire lower bowl, north endzone and West side. Close to 20,000. Those of us there will make it a playoff atmosphere.

Depth Charts are out. 2 back up online for Argos.
Money Hunter is still Ottawas Safety. Target him early and often. He is a headcase and playing out of position. Good for a few 15 yard penalties and a deep score.

Coxie listed as GTD. Arbuckle is backup QB.

Agreed on Hunter - over-rated big-time; good for the odd big hit, but burned often in coverage and dumb penalties. Total clown job running the RedBlacks D and personnel decisions.

Nield not dressing for the Argos? - unless he is hurt suddenly, I just don't get this - and what a slap in the face if Herlsow gets to dress over him ? Exume dressed as an 8th DB who plays STs only? - when they already have an extra import DB, and Adeleke or Blackburn - listed as LBs - are both natural DBs who can play there if needed.

At least they had the sense to dress 2 back-up O-line.
