Great game, Go Tiger-Cats! Awesome win. Wonderful atmosphere in the stadium, good time all round.
Really enjoyed the game and experience. It was a good choice for my first CFL game outside of Winnipeg. Impressed with what they’ve done to make the experience fun for people who maybe aren’t as into football as others, which Winnipeg hasn’t really done at their home games. Of course, the Bombers also washed the Ti-Cats, which helped my experience as well, but the Hamilton fans around me were friendly even though I could tell they were annoyed. Would go again!
Seats were great but Ticats lost. The food experience at Tim Horton field was horrible. Poutine and chili dog were not fully cooked and seem to be put aside and left out for long time. We actually tossed them in garbage.
Great venue to watch a game. Easy access and abundant parking surrounds the stadium. TiCat fans were mostly well behaved despite our presence routing for the opposition and eventual winning team. CFL fans are mostly quite amazing! Good eats, drinks and abundant restrooms! A fun night!
It was a bonding moment with the community I live in. The Hamilton Ticats won over a team whose fans don't seem to care. Very enjoyable to see them win and keep their playoff chances alive.
Great venue and fun game. Not thrilled that the pulled pork sandwiches are not sold anymore, not thrilled that twisted tea is no longer sold, 3 Arizona teas cost 49$!!!!!
Always love going to a TiCat game at Tim Horton’s Field. My only complaint is the issue with parking.
first time going to a game and such a great all around experience!! friendly staff, clean stadium and all around great atmosphere
Tailgating was excellent and for a change it was a good game
A wonderful CFL game, even if my team lost. The Hamiltonians I met were rabid but friendly and respectful. The weather was perfect. We visited the CFL Hall of Fame which brought back fond memories of Greats gone by. The music and party on field at the end of the game left us with a warm feeling for the community feeling of Hammer Town!
