There was an incident a few years back in Regina, at the Labour Day Classic, where some Roughrider fans were yelling, and poking fun at him. However, the Winnipeg fans he was with informed the Rider fans the situation, and despite the ugly rivalry between our respective football teams, the Rider fans were very apologetic, and even bought him some food at halftime.

I see where people not familiar with the situation are coming from. However, Gabe has always been accepted by Winnipeg sports fans. I apologize to DaChief if my first comment to him was reactionary, as sometimes I forget that he isn't widely known outside Manitoba.

Exactly this, snap judgement on both sides
