Last year I invited another couple to join my regular group and we lost. They are not allowed back. They are the bad luck guys. Although they did bring a sensational platter of home made pastrami fresh off the smoker, along some excellent swiss, fermented sauerkraut, KUB bread, spicy mustard and even the George Foreman for grilling up reubens. Hell, maybe I will invite them back and just have them saged before the game by an elder. They are big Bomber fans so I am sure they will understand the need to do so. They could have brought Manna from heaven served by 75 virgins. They are not to be allowed back! GCn20 and Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bring the kids into the fold and indoctrinate them into the Bomber culture and it gets a lot easier. My 9 year daughter started a BC Sucks chant last game... I am so proud of her.

Booch Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 If I am not at it....I do it solo...maybe with one my kids.....But I don't need to have a party or attend one...I watch games different than most will, and it's not conducive to a group setting unless a very like minded person...My wife isn not a fan either, so she knows to stay out of my cave Last real Grey Cup party I went to was probably when I lived in the States Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 9 year daughter started a BC Sucks chant last game... I am so proud of her. My daughter has been coming with me to football games since she was 18 months old. She's 17 now. When she was about 4 years old there was a game against Calgary in the old stadium (we sat about 20 rows up from visitor bench on the 55) where she stood up on her seat and started screaming at the top of her little lungs, "BOO CALGARY! BOO! YOU SUCK!" Was hilarious and the older season ticket holders that sat around us just killed themselves laughing. Needless to say .. she's a Bomber fan. coach17, Sard, HardCoreBlue and 3 others 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had a DB97 jersey for years that I stopped wearing after the heartbreaking 2016 west semi that we lost. This year my girlfriend got me a brand new beautiful uncustomized white road jersey and that's what won the West final, so that one is coming out on game day. That jersey is undefeated!

It won't matter. My wife will have me wrapped in a sheet because I get so worked up and my food tends to be worn more than eaten. lol. I will start the day in my Milt jersey though as it is the only white one I have. Edited November 14, 2023 by GCn20 johnzo and GCJenks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for current "gamer" jersey.... I had been going with a late 80s Walby for a long time, but it got autographed last year and so now it is retired to the wall. Among the many MANY things you never ever do to a jersey is wear an autographed one. So up it goes. Now I had a problem.... I own a LOT of Bombers jerseys, but what would not be bad luck? I decided to go with a relatively recent eBay purchase.... a 2011/2012-ish home blue #4-Pierce pro-stitch. Only member of the current team whose jersey I own. I need something more current, but the Coach Buck uni has done pretty well since I adopted it after last year's Banjo Bowl. At the Bombers Store yesterday, I was going through the new ones and trying to decide who to get next.... pretty torn between Zach, Brady and Demmer...
