Just wondering if anyone was at the Grey Cup in Winnipeg this past weekend. IT was a blast of a party and already I am planning for next year in Toronto. However, wanted to get a feel for what people thought of the security at the game. The Army was strategically placed throughout the game in seats and also they had back packs too (back packs weren't allowed by ticket holders). All in all I felt very safe and it was nice that they were allowed to mingle and be a part of the game and not a distraction. But like I said i wanted to know if any one felt the same way.
Grey Cup Security
- Thread starter canadian scoundrel
- Start date
I took most of the week off and went to the Greycup and every party I could find. Winnipeg did an outstanding job of hosting the Cup, and the weather even cooperated. I will pass on Toronto in 2007, unless the Bombers are playing in the Greycup. Montreal in 2008 will be an event not to be missed.

The intend to to make public feel safe but does little to stop the determined terrorist.
In U.K., there's police with assault rifles outside of tube stations & airports, they didn't stop the bombers.

At DA BEARS games they have been doing checks and pat downs since last December and it sucks. Everybody is supposed to be patted down but they are not, In the parking garage underneith the stadium they even get out the mirrors and do a thourough search of the cars undernieth, inside and out. It takes a good 20 minutes longer to get thru the gates and that sucks cause you have to leave the tailgaiting party earlier to get in by opening kickoff. At least we dont have army guys sitting in the stands yet.
ewwwwwwwww ..... J/K
