Instead of taking to the streets, fans are being welcomed onto the home turf of this year's Grey Cup champions.
The Winnipeg Blue Bombers will not be having a parade to celebrate their Grey Cup win, but are welcoming people to IG Field. The stadium opens at 5 p.m. Wednesday to celebrators joining the 6 p.m. festivities.
IT’S TIME TO CELEBRATE‼️

Health and safety regulations prevent us from having a parade this year, but that doesn't mean we can't still celebrate together.
