Have we heard anything yet? For an event having trouble selling tickets, I'm shocked this hasn't been announced yet.

As part of the over 50's set.... I don't know any of Fall Out Boy's songs and I'm not complaining about them being the halftime show. I'll be taking the ribs off the BBQ and pouring some more drinks during halftime anyway.

 

That's the spirit!

huh well I'll be damned, I had just assumed that the Fall out Boys had disappeared into obscurity. 

 

Always my 1st thought when I hear the name.

that's how I know you're good people....

I like this - Some of their new stuff is pretty good and has made its way into my Bus playlist. Could've been alot worse. I'll be watching

I was kinda hoping for Lebron James

 

I was hoping for the Shriners and their little cars.

good band...I'd be happy to hear them play

 

It's impossible to make everyone happy

 

And People used to love Nickelback till they made a pile of money, then suddenly they're no good.....

Yeah it nothing to do with every song sounding almost identical...

A little too winy for my taste, would have preferred TFK.

Kind of an odd choice but not the worst choice. Their music is energetic and punchy so I can see it working with football fans..

And it will bump up viewership by teenagers and young adults 14-23. Ladies apparently have a thing for wentz too so theres that lol.

Maybe so, but the highlight of my halftime was always taking a 10 minute long piss in the old "trough of champions".

After some time to reflect.... I'm not as mad about this choice as I was yesterday... while I am no fan of them, it seems like this is a pretty good get for the CFL... the beer lines will probably be long during half time anyways....

Meh. I'm in the 50+ and can't name one of their songs. But I don't expect much out of GC halftime shows anyway so it won't impact me watching the game.

I'm in the +50 crowd, and I go to the Grey Cup every year, because I'm a football junkie.   Apparantly this year I will dance like Uma Thurman at half time, which strikes me as being the theme from the munsters, but I intend to have as much fun as possible.   I always try to have fun, and really people, if you let yourself have fun, you will.   If you go in bitter, you will stay bitter, and this is true throughout life.

This isn't rock and roll, typical budget CFL get.

Nobody, I guess this is my own personal bias. I just find it annoying that they classify themselves as a rock act when it's not even close to rock n roll. Tweeny music. Is their any actual fans of "fall out boy" if someone can name 3 songs by this band without Google search I'll be impressed

I googled, im out lol

If it brings in non-football fans who may stick around and watch the rest of the game, I'm all for it. The half time act is really about the TV audience.
