This is Grey Cup weekend in Calgary.
The Sunday football match between the Edmonton Elks and
Montreal Alouettes is the main attraction,
but fans from across the CFL are also showing up at
the Stampede Grounds for the festival leading up to the big game.
This man drove in from Nanaimo.
The Grey Cup in itself is very fun with all the different teams
and fans. You get to meet them all.
You know, Edmonton's in the Grey Cup, so hey, we've got to come.
And he's not the only Canadian willing
to travel for the festival and game.
This fan is here for his 22nd Grey Cup.
I'm from Saskatoon, but I live in Waterloo, Ontario now.
So I came here with my son from Toronto and met up with my cousin
and a bunch of friends from Didsbury
and Saskatoon and elsewhere in Alberta.
So the gang's together.
From Montreal. We're a group of...
20 for Montreal.
From live music performances to pancake breakfasts,
some friendly football matches and even a drone show,
many came out for the vibe.
Football isn't the only sport on display.
In true Alberta fashion, the festival also includes a rodeo.
Kick-off Sunday is at 5 p.m. at McMahon Stadium.
