“After an absolutely electric home opener last weekend, we can’t wait to have another sold out crowd for the Labour Day Classic,” said Chief Brand Officer Anthony Partipilo. “Rider Nation always proves to be the difference maker for us, and we know they will make a big impact in our quest to beat the Bombers.”
