So, the Grey Cup was held in Ottawa this weekend and it was quite evident. Jenn and I were down in the Market yesterday and it was packed. We managed to stumble across a parade (even though there was no official Grey Cup parade this year.) We had a business meeting after church tonight (and then a potluck) and as we were walking home we could see the tv hellecopter flying around just across the canal from our place. We could hear the noise and see all the lights. I watched the end of the game (was rooting for BC — oh well) and then saw the firework go off. No kidding the game was live. It took less time to route the sound across the province (I imagine to Toronto and back) than it took for it to reach the house. We’re about a kilometre away from the stadium and we could hear the boom of the fireworks on the tv just a second before we heard the boom come through our window. Pretty neat.
