Nation Night at Commonwealth

My friends, today I am here to remind you about what could be the greatest night in Commonwealth Stadium history. Am I overselling this? Hell no. Eskimos games are a great time and they gave us our own section for Friday night’s game against the Roughriders and I’m here to invite you all to join us.

Back when I announced our partnership with the Eskimos I asked everyone at Nation HQ about their favourite memories from being at an Eskimos game. Everyone in our crew had an Eskimos story that they’ve been hanging on to for years, and we’re hoping to add another memory to that brain folder on Friday night. We want to round up a pack of the rowdiest Nation citizens we can find and put our stamp on the Bacardi Party Deck. Think about it; Is there anything better to do on a Friday night than to check out an Eskimos game and chirp Rider Nation right out of our home stadium with the shame of a loss in tow? No, I didn’t think so. 

There are quite a few reasons to get excited about this football game. Right out of the gate, we’re talking about an 8pm start and that gives you tonnes of time to get home, change, and do whatever you need to do before kickoff. For many of us that will mean heading down to the Pint Downtown for a few bevies and wings before the bus (yes there will be a bus) takes us to Commonwealth Stadium. Once there, we’ll be taking over the Bacardi Party Deck to scream and drink our faces off until the mighty Green and Gold leave the field with two points. After putting in our best attempt to drink Commonwealth dry we’ll all jump back on the bus, head back to the Pint, and continue the post-game party until they kick us out. 

TL;DR: It’s Friday Night Football against the worst team in the CFL. What else do you need to know?

There are still plenty of tickets available if you’re on the fence, or haven’t had a chance to pick your tickets up yet. After you’ve finally stopped thinking of excuses not to go, you’re going to want to head over to this link and pick up your tickets. Once there, you’re going to want to look for Section FF and use the promo code “party” and you’ll be all set to join the rest of us on the Bacardi Party Deck. The Eskimos are riding a two game winning streak and you know they’re aiming to put on a show against the heathens from Saskatchewan.
