CFL fans’ wedding draws national crowd

Last July, we brought you the story of Vincent Rulé and Deb Strickland — two CFL fans brought together by the game who were then engaged.

Saturday, May 11 was their wedding day, so we thought we’d check in.

As expected, the #CFLFamily turned out in numbers from around the country to celebrate the marriage between the Stamps (Deb) and REDBLACKS (Vince) fans.

There was also a fantastic nod to The Reklaws and their TNF theme song ‘Long Live the Night’.

The Grey Cup Fun Police were on location to ensure nobody was having a less-than-stellar time.
