Moose Jaw if you book now. Nearly every hotel room at any reputable hotel is booked before tickets even go on sale. There are some seedy hotels after but unless you like head lice, bed bugs, and tuberculosis you should just book out of town and prepare to walk because transit is completely non existent. Regina is a complete fiasco from a travelling fan's perspective and the CFL doesn't know any better because they have blocked off rooms for their needs and those of the broadcast/media well in advance and that pretty much covers Regina's rooms capacity. 

My only Grey Cup there I thought I had lucked out through a bus tour out of Winnipeg that came with a room. Little did I know I was expected to share the room with two other strangers. Just awful.

For real?? Wtf...creepy

Its been the same issues since they hosted in 2003. Need to stay away from Regina. Plus they had it in 22, why go there only 5 years later?

Who bid?

Starting to run out of suitable stadiums to host it in.

I thought Edmonton was getting the next one... They were passed over in favour of Calgary next year. I'm wondering if there's issues there after the owner died. Must be an absolute mess out east if nobody is getting one/bidding on one...

2027 Grey Cup to be hosted by the Riders. Be nice if it was played in a place that had indoor plumbing.

In Saskatchewan, a bedside bucket (AKA thunder jug) is considered indoor plumbing.

Ottawa is doing a multi year renovation of their stadium so they were out of the running.

The Big O is supposed to be ready for 2028 so Montreal was out for 2027.

That stadium has been under repair or renovation longer than I’ve been alive. Hopefully they get it right this time

It was a **** hole when I went there for the 2008 Grey Cup. 

Lets hope they do a major make over.

I’ve never been there in person but it always looked like a dump on TV going back to the 90s.

we all know the reality here. The league wants a decent size crowd no matter who plays, and don’t care that the fan experience will be trash and that people will get screwed and gouged.

No clue?...Generally they don't until the teams involved are decided and tickets will be expressly held for that very purpose. 14 straight sell-outs here are a pretty good ondicator it will be if not already is with "available" tickets for the public

Call the Club if you are curious
