Saturday, October 7th – Legend’s Night – 2013 Grey Cup Anniversary, presented by Purolator
It is with great sadness and broken hearts that the Saskatchewan Roughrider Football Club, alongside its fans and the entire CFL community, mourns the death of one of its greatest players of all time, George Reed. The Club will be honouring George throughout game day, starting with a pre-game ceremony honouring #34. Fans are asked to be in their seats by 4:50 p.m. to say goodbye to Mr. Reed and salute the Reed family who will be attendance. More details on what the Club has planned to Remember 34 can be found here
Let’s come together as Rider Nation on Legend’s Night, presented by Purolator, for a full night of tributes and to honour the Riders Legends that came before us. Mosaic Stadium will feature special moments before and throughout the game to honour George Reed.
At halftime the Saskatchewan Roughriders will induct Wendy Kelly, SaskTel Plaza of Honour’s first woman inductee to go in as an individual AND the entire 2013 Grey Cup Team. You will get a chance to hear from select members of the 2013 Team about what that special night in November meant to them when they captured the 101st Grey Cup at home at Historic Mosaic Stadium.
In honour of the 10th anniversary of the Grey Cup victory, we are giving away 5,000 2013 Replica Grey Cup Rings! Gates open at 3:30 p.m. and the first 5,000 fans through any of the four main gates can pick up their ring at Customer Service located at each gate.
The Club asks fans to bring a non-perishable food item to donate at the gate for the Purolator Tackle Hunger Program.
Coors Light Legends in the Park opens at 2:00 p.m., and fans will be joined by the players of the 2013 team, who are signing autographs from 3:00 p.m. until 4:30 p.m.! This will the only opportunity for you to meet and get autographs from every player attending this weekend’s game and induction ceremony.
