I know this is probably asked a lot on here; but why is it that the Toronto Argonauts seem to struggle mightily when it comes to attracting fans to the stadium, or at least filling the seats?

^^^loaded question, but to condense it down to basics, Toronto turns its nose up to anything Canadian or anything that equates it to same league as Saskatchewan.

I tuned into the half time show just to see Shania Twain, she likes & is use to this weather growing up in Northern Ontario but deciding a league Final in conditions like this just makes the Championship look like a crap-shoot. I'm glad the Riders never had to endure this.

Apparently there hasn't been a snow bowl Grey Cup like this since 1996 when Hamilton hosted the Cup at -10C with a controversial result as well.

Ah so Calgary is going through what Saskatchewan went through nearly a decade ago: Losing the Grey Cup twice in a Row
