We started dressing up 11 years ago. At first, we only had a tutu, but over the years we added accessories
she says with a big smile on her lips.
Every year, the four friends add new accessories to their costume. This year it’s a cape
she says, pointing to the piece of gold-colored fabric.
At home, I have a bin full of Blue Bombers clothing and accessories.
They are good friends with whom I play golf and ringette regularly. We have known each other for several years, we often travel together
explains the former director of Seven Oaks School.
The quartet has purchased season tickets since 2013 to attend all Blue Bombers games in Winnipeg. They are sitting next to each other.

For Anne Grossman, the Gray Cup festivities are opportunities to share her passion for football with people across Canada.
Everyone is passionate about their team here. We meet people who share the same passion as us. We can tease each other and have fun
explains the Franco-Manitoban.
My prediction is that we will win our third Gray Cup in five years.
