Grey Cup spirit is alive and well throughout the city, and nothing says Calgary hospitality like a pancake breakfast. The Horton Road Legion was serving flapjacks Thursday morning with a couple of special appearances. Tuffy Nuff stopped by before heading down to Stampede Park -- and the Grey Cup made a special appearance. Meantime, fans started gathering at the Stampede Grounds as festivities got rolling at the BMO Centre. They say they’re embracing the good vibes -- and good weather. “We were surprised, 14 (degrees),” said one, “so we’ve still got our shorts on...so far it’s been great, real good we’ve enjoyed ourself here” “I just love this atmosphere,” said a second, “It’s just so full of fun and spirit and it’s just so much fun.” “Calgary is just such a good host for it, and I think that cause I’m here, I think it’s a great opportunity to just come down here,” said another. Among the fans checking out the BMO Centre Thursday afternoon were the Grey Cup Fun Police, a group of buddies who have been showing up at Grey Cups since 2011. And in a unique crossover of sorts, they got to have a conversation with some actual Calgary police officers. Grey Cup events run at the BMO Centre through Saturday.
