HAMILTON, ONT. - The Hamilton Bulldogs announced today that the club will recognize the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as part of an in-game ceremony during tomorrow's game against the Toronto Marlies at 7:30 p.m. at FirstOntario Centre on Military Appreciation Night.
"The Hamilton Tiger-Cats once again captured the hearts and attention of the City of Hamilton this past season, capping things off with another appearance in the Grey Cup," said Bulldogs president Stephen Ostaszewicz. "They battled right to the very end and came extremely close to winning a Championship. As professional sports allies in Hamilton, we're pleased to have some of the Ti-Cats team in attendance as we recognize their efforts on Friday night."
