GREY CUP 2008
Posted: Thu Sep 04, 2008 8:54 am
Hey for those of you who are making the trip to Montreal for the Grey Cup this year, check out what the Pro Players have organized for the fans! http://www.proplayersparty.com
For those of you who will be going to the Grey Cup in Montreal, we haven't had much discussion about the Grey Cup festivities. Below is a list of event festivities. Do you want to try to organize a Lionbacker group event for any of these festival events?
Events that have caught my eye for my itinerary are:
Wednesday:
Sylvie Desgroseilliers / Motown Show at night.
Thursday:
I'm always in a mood for a black tie event, so the pre-game cocktail, the CFL Player Awards, and then the after show party.
Friday:
Calgary pancake breakfast in the morning, Touchdown Manitoba in the afternoon, and at night of course the Cheer Extravaganza (no Miss Grey Cup :no: ) followed by Elevation (U2), and Reebok & Diet Pepsi Max present April Wine in the early morning hours.
Saturday:
Spirit of Edmonton breakfast, Skills Competition and Flag Football for Fans in the afternoon, and in the evening of course, BC Lions Den at the Hotel Hilton Montreal Bonaventure. But that means I will miss the Cocktail & Scotiabank Grey Cup Gala at the same time, although I can still catch the Scotiabank Pro Players' Wrap Up that lasts until 3:00 AM.
Sunday:
Before the game, the Giant Omelete for breakfast followed by the Tailgate Party in the afternoon.
What do you say?
