Calgary Stampeders History
The Calgary Stampeders are the fifth oldest active franchise in the Canadian Football League (CFL). Founded in 1945, success came early for the Stampeders, who completed the CFL’s only perfect 12-0 regular season and secured their first Grey Cup in 1948. Overall, the Calgary Stampeders have appeared in 17 Grey Cup finals and won eight, in 1948, 1971, 1992, 1998, 2001, 2008, 2014 and 2018. Notably, the Stamps’ championship victories in 2001 and 2008 also stand as the two highest-attended CFL championship games of the 21st century. Throughout the team’s history, Calgary Stampeders players have claimed 11 Most Outstanding Player Awards, nine Most Outstanding Canadian Awards, six Most Outstanding Rookie Awards, four Most Outstanding Defensive Player Awards and eight Annis Stukus Trophies for the CFL’s top head coach. The Calgary Stampeders and the Edmonton Elks are included in the multi-league sports rivalry between the two cities, dubbed the Battle of Alberta.

Calgary Stampeders at McMahon Stadium
McMahon Stadium has been the home of the Stampeders since it opened in 1960. The stadium is owned by the University of Calgary and named after two Calgary residents and brothers, Frank McMahon and George McMahon, who helped fund the facility’s construction. McMahon Stadium was the site of the 1988 Winter Olympics' opening and closing ceremonies and has hosted five Grey Cup finals between 1975, 1993, 2000, 2009 and 2019. The 35,400-seat venue has undergone several expansions and renovations, most notably in 1988, 2001 and 2005. During home games, fans can catch sight of Ralph the Dog, the first mascot of any CFL team, or celebrate a touchdown with the release of a white gelding known as the "Quick Six" horse, who charges along the east sideline.

Beer options are lacklustre- how about some support for our awesome local craft breweries? Got in trouble for standing up to cheer in the 4th quarter…really? It’s a football game. Whole venue feels like it needs an overhaul
My wife and i have "going to Rider away games"on our bucket list, so now we can cross off McMahon Stadium. (Not to say we wouldn't go again, but we have several more to cross off first). Over all, we really liked the experience. It almost felt like we were sitting in Mosaic Stadium as there must have been an equal amount of green and red jerseys in the crowd. The locals were all friendly and there was lots of good-fun rivalry. Getting in and out of the stadium was a breeze, and we stayed in a hotel across the street, less than a 10 minute walk. I would recommend our trip to anyone!
Brought the kids and Grandkids. Great family fun and a food coma! We’ll be back!
I took my two boys. For my youngest it was his first game ever. Because it was impossible to buy water we had to leave early. I tried two places and they both said water was sold out before half time. Maybe when it’s almost 30 degrees the venue could stock up better or at least have available cups of tap water.
Not too exciting to watch, rather tedious to watch the sloppy play.
The Stampeders just made themselves 2 new CFL fans despite the last second loss.
It was my first time on the game. At the beginning was a little difficult to understand all the rules. Then, I felt more comfortable and I was enjoying more and more the experience. It was a good game
My wife and I really enjoyed the game, it was good entertainment, a little pricey, but I haven't been to a game for over 4 years, I'm from Hamilton. Look forward to another game.
Although the staff was great , the parking good for handicap, it was somewhat of a disappointment to pay $142 per ticket and get to your seat and have to clean ice off the back and base of your seat. That as well as 3 inches of snow at feet was not the greatest. I realize it is outdoor CFL in October, but in comparison to the Heritage Classic game 2 days later in Edmonton, the seats there were totally cleaned off and snow was removed prior to fans at game. Just an opinion.
It's pretty pricey, I thought for $75 I would at least get an actual seat, one with a back and maybe a cup holder.
