Rating: 1 out of 5 Sad, but True
by MikeFinEdmonton on 8/19/12Commonwealth Stadium - EdmontonWell, I dropped $100 for tickets, another $100 at the starium, and I now fully understand why there were so many empty seats. My wife and I spent more time watching the fans - they were more entertaining! With all the breaks - TV time outs I think, the game dragged on (and on, and... ) This was a once a year event for us. Sadly, it was a waste of time and money.

by justwet on 11/15/11Commonwealth Stadium - Edmontonthe highlight of the day was free transit <lrt> to the event all was good at the game but not memorable cause my team lost but the return trip was fantastic. We had a couple of very vocal fans harassing us for the entire trip back because of my stamps jacket; this was the funniest thing I can remember in a long time. He even ran back to the train after leaving to give us the finger one more time. Fans like this make going to the game a fantastic experience because there was no percieved malice just a dedicated fan enjoying the moment. Experiences like this make me want to return for another game in the cityas \i will forget the game tomorrow but not the return trip! ps thank you edmonton transit for free LRT ride to the game

Rating: 4 out of 5 Poor start
by Wilmar2 on 8/31/09Commonwealth Stadium - EdmontonThe Esks got off to a poor start when they gambled on 3rd and inches with the result of their first turnover which was due to an unfavourable spot by the officials. They continued to shoot themselves in the foot with another turnover thanks to an interception. That put them down by 14 points before the fans were even settled in their seats but they hung in there and somehow still had a chance to win, even though they lost 7 yards on second down to make a field goal attempt from the 47 instead of the 40 yard line with 54 seconds left on the clock. Prefontaine came through with a solid kick for the 3 pointer and put the Eskimos ahead by 1. Hopes for a Hamilton win were dashed by an Eskimo interception to give the Esks a 31 to 30 win that sent the fans home in a festive mood.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Unbelievable Game!!
by Impressed2 on 8/14/09Commonwealth Stadium - EdmontonIt was probably the best football game I have ever been to. It is the only one that we'll get a chance to go to this season and it was worth every penny!!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Eskimos were awesome!!!!!!
by Sema on 7/16/09Commonwealth Stadium - EdmontonThe Edmonton Eskimos were AWESOME cuz they absolutely killed the Saskatchewan RoughRiders!! Edmonton and Saskatchewan are probably one of the best games to go and watch in the CFL cuz they're alway a interesting game, I myself think its better then going to watch a Calgary-Edmonton game cuz we always know the outcome of those games..and its always Edmonton!!!!
