We ordered our tickets last Sunday and the only ones available were in the "visitors" section, which suited Gord fine since we sat among other Tiger-Cats fans ... which meant we entered with the Tiger-Cats fans who quite enthusiastically supported their team.

As I said, we sat in the "visitors" section with a lot of Tiger-Cats fans.

Alas, we weren't even close :( |
Though winning in the first two quarters, the Argos fell apart at the beginning of the third quarter and never got the lead back and lost.
There was lots of celebration after the game ...

Though I don't know a lot about footfall, it was a fun game. The fans are really enthusiastic and the noise level in the Roger Centre was high during the entire game.

I love, love, love football!
I didn't know Canadian football was that popular. Fun fact: a friend of mine is engaged to a Toronto Argonaut :P
