Aside from the Crap Filled Peas, it was a fantastic sporting event. I've always enjoyed the Grey Cup, but in previous years I never paid much attention to the season. This year a buddy got Argo's season tickets so I managed to got to a few games, and I am totally hooked.
Wow, what a game. Probably the best overall football game I've ever seen. All D in the first half, All O in the second, with a few circus catches. Great stuff.

Apparently not - I just read in the Globe that only 3.2 million watched, making it the lowest rated Grey Cup since 2001.
I thought that "6 million" figure was a tad optimistic.

Yeah, the halftime show seemed like it was never going to end....

So being at a game live, how loud is the action on the field really?? Can you hear the hits on the field? How was your view?

My buddy has great seats - 55 yard line, 20 rows up on the Argo's side of the field. The noise of the crowd, the music and the commercials on the JumboTron overpowers any sounds from the field.
