WINNIPEG, MB - Organizers of the 94th Annual Grey Cup announced today that tickets for the game - to be played Nov. 19 at Canad Inns Stadium in Winnipeg - are completely SOLD OUT.

"The citizens of the city of Winnipeg and Manitoba have always demonstrated they are great supporters of the Blue Bombers and the CFL," said Lyle Bauer, President and CEO of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

"The combination of a sold out game and unparalleled Grey Cup Festival events will make the 2006 Grey Cup a celebration of Canadianna which will be remembered for years. Thank you to everyone involved - including all the fans, volunteers and sponsors - who have helped make this week such a tremendous success."

This is the third time the Winnipeg Football Club has played host to the Grey Cup.

In 1991, the Toronto Argonauts beat the Calgary Stampeders 36-21 before a packed house at Canad Inns Stadium. And in 1998, the Stampeders defeated the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 26-24 on a last-second Mark McLoughlin field goal.

This year's Grey Cup will feature the East Division champion Montreal Alouettes and the West Division champion B.C. Lions.
