Winnipeg Blue Bomber fans are descending on Regina this weekend to celebrate their favourite football team, as the Bombers look for a three-peat victory as Grey Cup champions.
Touchdown Manitoba held its annual Winnipeg Blue Bombers team party at the Co-operators Centre in downtown Regina ahead of Sunday's CFL championship game between the Bombers and the Toronto Argonauts.
Hundreds of Bomber fans got together Friday night for fun, food, drink, dance, and to watch a performance from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers Cheer Team.
"This is what Manitoba's all about, this is what Grey Cup's all about, this is what the Bombers are about, the three-peat!" shouted one fan.
"I guarantee a 34 – 21 win for the Bombers. I will lock it in, here's my money," said his friend.
For Gord Patterson of Gladstone Manitoba, attending the Grey Cup is an annual tradition.
"I haven't missed one since 2012," he said.
