On Monday, the Stampeders once again asserted themselves as Alberta's top football team, taking down the Elks 26-18 to claim the franchise's 400th home victory.
They found themselves down 8-7 at the half before Calgary's 25-year-old quarterback, Jake Maier, threw back-to-back touchdowns to Reggie Begelton in the third quarter to put his team in the driver's seat.
For Dean Lang, the annual showdown is a must-attend tradition, and this year, it doubles as his 60th birthday celebration."These guys make it special, and it's just nice to be with family and friends," said Lang.And their tailgate parties are more than just a fun get-together. "We've been doing this for about 20 years. My wife Susan, her father passed away from prostate cancer," said Morrison.
