You bought a party pass right? YOU DID BUY A PARTY PASS RIGHT? Good, because if you didn’t, they are sold out and you’re weekend is a lot more complicated and less fun. You may try your luck (day of) at the Convention Centre early. They might sell some at the door. Failing that, there’s…
Calling all degenerate Grey Cup attendees! Your guide to medically unsafe binge drinking and general antisocial behaviour has arrived!
Death, disease, bankruptcies, strikes, mergers and low attendance. Always drama. Every opening day seems like a miracle but we made it again in 2022.

Moving Around the Very Cold City of Calgary You have several options to get from YYC to downtown: Public transit runs $8. Taxi from the airport to downtown is $45. Uber collects at Doors 1, 12, and 17. There is no Lyft! For the second year in a row, the Grey Cup Committee is doing…
