WASN'T THAT A PARTY!

After Black Friday shopping, a local Santa Claus parade and the Argonauts win at Grey Cup, it was a party weekend. People had a good time- no injuries! After the party it is time to get back to the normal daily routines and a Monday morning. An anniversary of any event brings memories and reflections to those involved. So 100 years ago a Toronto team won the Grey Cup and ironically a Toronto team won it again! For me it was not about the winning but people coming from all over Canada to have a party! Celebrating in good spirit with rivalries but respect and all in good fun! Makes us proud to be Canadian that we can respect our differences and love each other anyway!

A POSTCARD FROM THE GREY CUP

If anyone has a postcard from the Grey Cup try to send one to me! I am sure in a history of over 100 years there would be a few postcards of the event occurring in the Canadian Footbal League. Each city from Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Regina, Winnipeg, Toronto, Hamilton, Ottawa and to Montreal have had a turn at winning the Cup. Have those cities made postcards of their wins?

GREY CUP WEEKEND AT 100 YEARS

The Canadian Fooball League is celebrating 100 hundred years in Toronto Ontario Canada at the Rogers Centre. Home team- Toronto Argonauts and the Calgary Stampeders are playing. West versus East tradition- a Canadian tradition! The Grey Cup is the prize. Grey cup parties will occur in many homes on Sunday November 25, 2012. Families will have bets that live in other parts of Canada. Remembering other games like the one that had to be postponed due to the fog! Or the1976 one when my daughter Natasha was born! What memories do you have of the Grey Cup? Have you attended a game? What was your favourite win? Who are rooting for this weekend?
