Wow -- color me very impressed if that's the case. Grey Cup tickets aren't cheap, and there's a good chance it's going to be coooooold outside come late November. I'll take my chances finding one on the secondary market (if the Stamps make it) -- looks like there are lots of singles still available in any event.
