Everyone: ESPN's Chris Berman reported about this year's 2012 Grey Cup game at the Rogers Skydome...
Talk about good luck-Toronto ended up hosting what ended up to be a Argonauts home game and there is no
doubt that the home field advantage helped their cause against the Calgary Stampeders...a 35-22 Argos win...
After the Argos win how did fans react to their winning this year's Grey Cup? I recall that their were celebrations
after past Argos GC wins and I was surprised after nothing was mentioned concerning this here at UT...
We all know that fans celebrate after major championship wins and I will compare this to the NFL Super Bowl
in which a competing team has never played in their home stadium...
The closest that a team has come is the San Francisco 49ers on 1/20/85 in which they played at Stanford Stadium
in Palo Alto,CA which is about 25 miles from the 49ers home of Candlestick Park...Super Bowl XIX was won by the
49ers over the Miami Dolphins 38-16...
I feel that things are getting interesting for Toronto sports fans despite the fact that there may not be an NHL
season this year and with the Blue Jays major changes next year's baseball season will be something to look
forward to...Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100th_Grey_Cup
