The Calgary Stampeders are facing off with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the CFL’s Western final, with the winner off to Edmonton for the Grey Cup.
One of Calgary’s finest, Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart was in attendance to give the Stamps a proper send-off in what will be, one way or the other, their last home game of the season. Before issuing the coin toss at the start of the game, he commandeered a microphone and had the local crowd fired up with his iconic catchphrase.
At 61 years of age, Hart is still sending it. Even in his retirement, he has made sporadic appearances in the WWE over the last few years, most often in the corner of other members of the Hart wrestling family.
The Stampeders are holding a narrow 14-11 lead over the Blue Bombers in the fourth quarter at the time of writing; the winner will play the Ottawa Redblacks, after an incredible six-touchdown performance from Trevor Harris secured their Grey Cup berth earlier on Sunday.
