The Hoser’s Guide to 105th Grey Cup
Introduction
This guide will take you through every important watering hole the 105th Grey Cup in Ottawa has to offer while avoiding the sobering pitfalls of bad parties and the dreaded dry mouth. This is my 12th straight Grey Cup and I declare, with great confidence, that I am a hardened veteran of the Grand National Drunk. The Hoser’s Guide is focused soley the best places to party and where to find beer on Grey Cup weekend so if you can’t handle that then TAKE OFF EH!
There is so much to do on championship weekend that writing The Hoser’s Guide has become a real bastard. As a result, it’s broken into sections and each will be released pending completion over the coming days.
