I would like to receive comments on the any Grey Cup festivities that you may have-both good and bad. I have been to seventeen Grey Cups and I must say it was one of the better ones for organization that I have been to (especially the way everything was basically centrallized and easy to get to) however, I do have some conerns with some of the events. Basically, thee pregame tailgate parties-the price and entertainment.
A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to talk to someone from the festival committee on the phone about the concerns that I had. During the conversation we talked about Trooper playing at the outdoor tailgate party. I bought tickets to the party to see Trooper and was quite shocked to find out that Trooper was playing for free at the street fest on Saturday (I went-a great time). I am going to write a letter about my concerns and thought I would see if anyone one wants to provide any other input that I can pass along.
I never did attend any of tailgate parties and would like to get some feed back
-were they worth the price?
-was there anything special about the indoor one?
-was the outdoor party on tiem? Trooper was suppose to end at 4 which would only leave 1/2 hr to get to your seat-was that enought time or was there delays that made you late for kicoff/leave the party early.
I also have to admit that I was leery about Bachman Turner being the half time entertainment but it was very successful.
Thanks ahead of time for any input.

The Spirit of Edmonotn I have to say was another great event, shockingly most of the fans that I interviewed for my show were Rider fans! Most of them were more than willing to go on camera except for 4 d***s that were Sask fans that refused to answer any of my questions and ended up saying to me on film "show us some ID kid, if not get out of our faces". Other than that it was good times.
