100th CFL Grey Cup Celebrated by ZFL in Scenic Zion National Park on November 25th!

(Zion National Park, Utah)_A century of cool Canadian football was celebrated in fine fashion on November 25th when ZFL coaches Mike, Doug, Tony, David and Shawn gathered at Mike's Zion cabin to watch the 100th Grey Cup live. ZFL coaches watched as the Grey Cup Pool, with it's $100 jackpot, switched possible winner possibilities throughout the CFL championship game.

Rusty Wagon coach Val won the big prize when the Stampeders scored on a meaningless TD with only 30 seconds left in the game. The Stamps ensuing two-point conversion awarded the winning numbers and the big prize to Val.

The Toronto Argonauts slammed the Calgary Stampeders 35-22 in a game that wasn't that close. The Grey Cup Buffet was excellent however, as Doug's salad was a great addition to Mike's legendary spaghetti and meatballs. David's salsa won rave reviews from the festive crowd as well.
