CALGARY — The Calgary Stampeders game will go ahead despite water restrictions in the city.
Calgarians were urged to reduce water use as work to repair a major water main stretched into a second day.
The Stampeders host the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in their first game of the 2024 CFL season. Former Stampeder quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell returns for the first time since he was traded to Hamilton.
Outdoor water use such as car washing or plant watering has been banned and citizens were asked to shorten showers, hold off on dishwashing and laundry and reduce toilet flushing.
The Stampeders have asked fans in a statement to be mindful of water use at the game.
