That they did, ignoring rainy weather to cheer on their team.
And while the fans were enthusiastic and every bit as loud as requested, the results were not what they were hoping for.
It was a heartbreaker of a loss for the Langley Rams, who were defeated 11-6 by the Saskatoon Hilltops, marking the Saskatchewan team香蕉视频直播檚 sixth straight Canadian Bowl championship.
By the end of the first half, Hilltops were leading courtesy of place kicker Rylan Kleiter, who scored twice in the second quarter.
At the end of the third quarter, running back Max Joseph scored a touchdown, but Langley was unable to make the two point conversion, leaving the score at 8-6 (due to a safety conceded by the Rams).
