On a side note-the comments on that article are hilarious. Typical tired Winnipeg "Saskies are inbreds" jokes (with a few enlightened folks who know the real deal), one goofball who wonders why no one lives in Sask if it's so great, but the one that really made me laugh is the guy (or gal, I suppose) who thinks of the cost of that billboard as a donation. Jim Pattison (who was born in Sask, btw) might look at it that way, but I don't know that anyone in Winnipeg benefits from it (except maybe the guy getting $12/hr to change the sign...)
Really, nobody cares. It just shows that these Rider fans have nothing better to do but waste time and money. A Winnipeg radio station did this what 10 years ago and Riderville is still going on about it. Must have really tweaked a nerve!
