However on the flip side, I've seen some crappy ones in my life both in Calgary & Winnipeg. We're also talking weekend games. People have cottages & they're at them in June. In Calgary, tens of thousands of people head out to the mountains in Banff, K Country or SE BC. I also find June is a busy month for a lot of people. Going to a Bomber or Stamps game isn't a priority. Yes, I'd like to see Thurs games in June. You're always battling cottage country in Winnipeg but its only a fraction of the total population of Manitoba that needs to show up for the games.

I thought having a Stamps game on the Sat night of the August long weekend was crazy but that's TSN. They said 27,000 showed up but I know McMahon Stadium & there's no way. More like 23,000. I was in Winnipeg & I watched the game at my In Laws. I know the fan support for the Stamps right now in Calgary is luke warm after what happened the last 2 Grey Cups. They wouldn't get a bigger crowd for a game on a long weekend on a Sat nite.
August 10, 20186 yr comment_346816 I agree with SpeedFlex that some tickets need to be lowered. Endzones at IGF are an example.
August 11, 20186 yr comment_346909 In my life time ... I've had far more friends/family say they don't wanna sit out in the freezing cold then them saying "I don't want to go because it's June and I want to sit at the beach" .....

August 11, 20186 yr comment_346922 I just watched part of the game on TSN. I disagree with you all, TSN has been doing their part to make me go to home games. It’s called the “Rod Blackout”.
