Description
Classic battle of Alberta between the Edmonton Eskimos and the Calgary Stampeders in the 1993 Western Final. Canadian football in November can be cold, and this one was brutal. The day before with chinook winds whipping of the mountains pumped the temperature to a balmy plus 15 degrees celsius. Overnight it turned completely opposite. A blizzard of wind and snow dropped the temperature to minus 20 degrees celsius.
Believe it or not it was forecasted that this would happen. Both teams battled it out but in the end the Edmonton Eskimos came away with a 29-15 victory and a trip to the 81st Grey Cup the week after right in Calgary.
Head Coach Ron Lancaster and Gizmo Williams embrace each other after the West Final game.
