Riders are more than just a team

There's a young man in SK with a brain tumor and he wanted to attend the game. The Riders accomodated him with great seats, the winning game ball, and an invite to the locker room, where they all said a prayer for him.

Now the community has pulled together and funded a trip to the Cup. Awesome!

Saskatchewan fans exist right across this country with emotion far beyond most teams.
I have followed the Riders for years and do verbal battle with my grandson every week.
Even here is Kelowna I have seen car flags and hats and all manor of displayed rider pride.
Sunday I will be wearing my new rider hat and shirt.
