REGINA — Just two days after Hamilton kicked off the lead-up to Mark’s Labour Day Weekend with an announced sell-out, the Saskatchewan Roughriders have followed suit.  The Riders announced Wednesday that they have maxed out the 55th annual game in Saskatchewan against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

The annual classic, which pits the Saskatchewan Roughriders against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on the Sunday of the Labour Day weekend, is a fan favourite for Roughrider and Bomber fans alike.

“Once again we are in awe of the passion and excitement that Rider Nation has for their football team,” said Chief Brand Officer Anthony Partipilo. “We can’t wait to hear the energy and noise that they bring to this year’s Labour Day Classic.”
