Unless the league can guarantee an amazing Grey Cup experience in Vancouver (might help Bradley to sell the Lions), I agree. If the Cup is coming back to the West in two years, the year after that HAS to be in Hamilton. Pair it up with CFL Fan Week and really reward the Ti-Cat fans, they deserve it.

Before the start of last year, didn't they say that they saw a major surge in season ticket sales? I'd be afraid to see the base from a few years ago if that's the case.
The good news, though, is that the team still averaged 16K last year. So there's a solid base of prospective season ticket holders that the team will hopefully be able to seduce. It's not a rosey picture, but hopefully they can make progress this year.
