Dressed like a green and white Moses, Reginian TJ Karwandy said he only needed one commandment: Saskatchewan shalt not lose.
"We don't need prayers when you've got this much support," said Karwandy, 26, surveying hordes of ramunctious Riders loyalists pouring across the McMahon Stadium parking lot.
Being an Alouettes fan in a noisy sea of green didn't intimidate Ron Monger of Quebec City.
"It's overwhelming but we've been treated very nice, no hostilities," said a beer-drinking Monger, 46, who'd brought his two daughters to Calgary.
"There's not that much hostility between Saskatchewan and Montreal."
