Hello folks!

In case you ever find yourself passing through Toronto between June and November, OR if you have any friends who are Lions fans living in the Big Smoke... I'd like to introduce you to CFL Fans in Toronto: Bringing together Toronto-based CFL Fans of all stripes to celebrate our league!

Astonishing but true, until now Canada’s largest city completely lacked a ‘home base’ where Canadian Football League fans knew they could go to find fellow CFL fans catching the game together, with the audio turned UP and cold beverages to go around.

But times have changed! CFL Fans in Toronto brings together Toronto-based CFL fans of all stripes to catch CFL game broadcasts and celebrate our league. Our goal is to create the festive atmosphere that one experiences at Grey Cup Week, on a weekly basis throughout the 2016 season.

CFL Fans in Toronto will host one event per week throughout the 2016 CFL Season, beginning with weekly gatherings to catch Thursday Night Football broadcasts throughout the entire Summer.

We’ve teamed up with BrewHaHa Craft Beer Lounge to provide a long-awaited home for CFL fans to hang their hats. Occupying the lower level of the Duke of York pub, BrewHaHa is a centrally located venue (39 Prince Arthur Ave) with plenty of TVs, excellent and reasonably priced food and drinks, and a football-friendly atmosphere.

Join us at our official launch party on Thursday, June 30th for a CFL double header!

Thanks John. I just want to send some major props to the BC Lions, who were cool enough to send a few hats out to us, to be used as giveaways/prizes to help us get this grassroots initiative off the ground. We are for fans of all stripes and hope that some of you Lions fans living in Toronto (or just passing through) will join us to catch games!
