Football fans from across Canada in Vancouver for Grey Cup celebrate ‘glory and beauty of the CFL’ [Video]

When Winnipeggers Barbara and Sylvia Main travelled to Vancouver for their first Grey Cup in 1990, there was no zip line.

But being back on the West Coast for this weekend’s Grey Cup match brings a sense of nostalgia for the mother-daughter duo.

“It is where we first started — first mother-daughter Grey Cup … so it is kind of sentimental for us to be back here again together enjoying the Grey Cup,” daughter Sylvia said on Friday. “We’re ready for the Bombers to bring [another] one home.”

The Mains are among the football fans from across the country who have converged on Vancouver, eager to build relationships and strengthen their camaraderie with like-minded fans who are passionate about the Canadian Football League.
