didn't expect Shauni to return to be honest https://deadline.com/2026/04/erika-eleniak-baywatch-shauni-mcclain-fox-1236862298/

I gotta give the organization credit for not becoming complacent. Their sales team could have mailed this season in after selling out last year but the opposite is happening. I have seen them marketing the standing room tix that you mentioned, they are promoting group sales and I even received a card from my ticket rep (I didnt even know I had a rep).

President/front office type? Yes, hes the goat in that area. Greatest combined career? Very hard to beat.

Crazy. Both the previous years presidents trophy winner and Stanley cup winner did not make it. First time since 2014 they say. should have played the kids instead of signing washed up vets.

If the name was Vladimir Elgersma then it would be done already.

I dont know how some in Calgary can proclaim they have the best tailgating in the league. The Bombers need to send up a drone prior to a game to show fans how much "unofficial tailgating" is actually happening around campus. Maybe it will get other teams/fans to up their game.

Excellent news on the financials.

This was why I was concerned about his health by throwing himself back into the fire. Is it worth it? Only he can answer that for himself.

I've been to Bomber home games & Stamps home games. There is absolutely no comparison between them. The Stamps home games are lifeless. Lack excitement. The Bombers work hard to make the home game experience memorable for everyone. The Stamps literally do nothing. They do try but nothing works. In the case of Calgary, it's ownership.

Now 104.7 done

One of the biggest and best things Wade did (in terms of revenue) was the Standing Room Only tickets at the Rum Hut. I can't get over how many 30-and-Under people I know who have season tickets just for that. They just go there because it's a fun place to hang out and meet girls/guys...

oooof what a burn

I think the key is they've made it the place to be. From the game day experience, the amount of tailgating, and making affordable options for casual fans to be part of the action all contribute to the growth. Moving the season up so there aren't as many cold weather games makes a difference too. I've noticed since tailgating has become a big thing, the support has really gone up. Riders can learn a couple things as they expand tailgating. Interesting note- in the article, I'm in the second photo.

hmmm I have a feeling that Ghosts days could be numbered it's being delayed til the Spring https://deadline.com/2026/04/ghosts-holiday-specials-halloween-christmas-season-6-1236861874/

we must have quite he rainy day fund accumulated now....and imagine what it could be if not for the 2 covid yrs Proof positive that if you put in the leg work, and do things right a franchise can be profitable....Hopefully other squads take note and reach out to try and replicate...tho it's also not rocket science either....you just need the right people in charge and ability to listen to and get a sense of your fan base

Does Evander still have a gambling problem? Is he going to be flat broke within a few years of his actual retirement?

Of course the maga stuff I mused is all bull$hit....I threw that one in there to magnify how ridiculous this whole Elgersma saga is proceeding in the excited States...Getting a work visa down there is a rare thing lately....good luck with that Tuberville

ahhhh awkward, the secret is me (and the fam) constantly buying BB merch and hating on all other teams especially the Argos and Riders. Go Blue, Go CFL. :)

Considering his playing career & his time as president...is Wade Miller the greatest Blue Bomber of all time? I think there's a legit argument. His impact on the field is....something that leaves you wanting more, sure...but has anyone had a bigger impact to this club off the field?

Insanity. Prob more than everyone else combined.

That's eye popping for the CFL. Holy smokes. Made as much as the Jets lol

Boutin would probably be our 2nd or 3rd best Canadian receiver and a huge piece for the run game either inside or from the slot. Would love that pick if he's actually going to play in the CFL immediately and not try to sit around for NFL camp. Think we need a guy who is reasonable C/G/6th OL candidate out of the chute, a receiver/H back who can play right away and a DB or DL who can play right away too out of our first 4 picks.

I don't see what goes on behind closed doors obviously, but if every other club doesn't corner Miller and demand his secret at every opportunity, they aren't paying attention. Amazing stuff.

Yeah imma be honest, if the Bombers don't draft a receiver at some point that's a fail.

Bombers print money year after year, class of the league on the field and off.
