we bleed green!

What do you do when you have had a real bad week? And the Roughriders are in the Grey Cup on Sunday? Well, of course, you grab your rider gear, and some alcohol, an oreo cheeze cake, and some great friends and spend the night drinking and eating and talking and laughing!!!
GO RIDERS!!!! Game on Sunday. Rumour has it the stadium in Calgary will be a sea of green given so many of us Saskatchewanites have moved there over the years. Rider Pride is worldwide!!!
PS: That is the only Rider shirt I own....I have to wear it for three days straight!! ewwwwy...

And all those Rider's fans created total havoc in Calgary traffic last night. Gridlock everywhere. People dancing naked (cept for green shirts) on the streets. All these flatlanders trying to cope with the concept of driving up and down hills, instead of just across the bald prairie. It was *BAD*!

Those who say the rain/snow/ice caused the traffic problems are just spreading rumours.

I never truly appreciated "Rider Nation" until this past week...pretty cool. I'll be rooting for Sask as well.
