The Stampeders (3-1) look to extend their winning ways at home tonight as they face the h2hWpg.jpgWinnipeg Blue Bombers (2-2). Calgary is unbeaten in its last eight regular-season games at McMahon Stadium with seven wins and a tie since an Aug. 1, 2009, loss to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m.

Tonight’s game includes the annual Tackle Hunger food drive to benefit the Calgary Inter-Faith Food Bank. Volunteers, including the significant others of Stampeders players and coaches, will be accepting donations of non-perishable food items as well as cash at all entrance gates. By donating, you’re entered to win a draw for a trip to the 2010 Grey Cup or a signed Henry Burris jersey.
