BLACKOUT

NIGHT OCTOBER 20TH VS. CGY

Tonight, we wrap up a solid regular season against the Calgary Stampeders. It’s Blackout Night and we hope to do our part in turning out the lights on Calgary’s playoff hopes.

This Lions offence will continue to cook ahead of the playoffs as Vernon Adams Jr. closes in on his first 5,000-yard season.

History is at stake on defence as Mathieu Betts needs just one sack to break the single season record for Canadians set

by Lion legend Brent Johnson in 2005. And Ben Hladik needs just five more tackles to become the first Canadian Lion to hit 100 in a season.

Plus, we get a head start on celebrating Halloween this evening with a costume contest on Terry Fox Plaza, and concourse Trick-Or-Treating for the kids. In the spirit of Blackout Night, we have exciting surprises in store in the stadium, be sure to stay in your seats after the second quarter to see our Darkness Falls Halftime Show. It’s a cinematic experience you won’t want to miss!

HARDY REJUVENATED, ALL-IN ON LIONS AFTER CFL DEBUT. At this stage of the season, depth is crucial if you’re the BC Lions who are staying locked in for the final regular season game despite already clinching a home playoff date. A running back like JaQuan Hardy can help you win games down the stretch of the season. Despite being away from football for an entire year, Hardy quickly found the rhythm once he entered the game against Hamilton last Friday...

GAME PREVIEW: LIONS VS. STAMPEDERS Time flies when you’re having fun. And although the final chapter of this 2023 BC Lions story has yet to be penned, the tale has provided no shortage of storylines. A few of those may be settled as the 12-5-0 squad plays host to the 5-11-0 Calgary Stampeders this Friday (7:00 pm, TSN/CFL+/AM730) at Save-On-Foods Field at BC Place. From Vernon Adams Jr.’s quest for 5,000 passing yards, Mathieu Betts and Ben Hladik knocking on the door of CFL history, and a crazy and almost unprecedented comeback over the Ottawa just to name a few, Lion fans have certainly been treated to some solid memories. Now the focus is on the big prize in November...
