The '''95th Grey Cup''' was held in [[Toronto]] at the [[Rogers Centre]] on November 25, 2007. The [[Grey Cup]], first awarded in 1909, is the championship game of the [[Canadian Football League]]. It was played between the [[Saskatchewan Roughriders]] and the [[Winnipeg Blue Bombers]], with the Roughriders winning 23–19. It was the first Grey Cup meeting between the two teams, and was also the first time any [[Labour Day Classic]] matchup has reoccurred in the Grey Cup.

The 95th Grey Cup was the 46th [[Grey Cup]] hosted by Toronto since the championship's inception in 1909 and the first it has hosted since 1992. SkyDome/Rogers Centre previously hosted the [[77th Grey Cup]] in 1989 and the [[80th Grey Cup]] in 1992. The game was announced as a sellout on November 19, 2007.<ref>https://www.cfl.ca/article/2007_grey_cup_game_sold_out {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150608110902/http://www.cfl.ca/article/2007_grey_cup_game_sold_out |date=June 8, 2015 }} 2007 Grey Cup game sold out</ref> Ticket prices ranged from $94 to $560.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/story/2009/01/23/grey-cup-tickets.html?ref=rss | work=CBC News | title=Calgary jacks up Grey Cup ticket prices | date=January 23, 2009}}</ref>

The game was viewed by approximately 3.337 million viewers on CBC television, up from 3.202 million the previous year.<ref>{{cite news|author=CBC Sports |url=http://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/story/2007/11/26/cfl-greycup-ratings.html |title=Grey Cup watched by more than 3.3 million viewers |publisher=CBC.ca |date=November 26, 2007 |access-date=November 19, 2008}}</ref> This was the last Grey Cup and CFL game broadcast by CBC, as TSN became the exclusive TV home for the CFL the following season.

==Grey Cup Festivities==
The Grey Cup festivities began with a four-day festival that had over 50 events at several venues in downtown Toronto including the [[Metro Toronto Convention Centre]], and the [[CN Tower]]. The festival area was bounded by [[Spadina Avenue]] east to [[Bay Street]] and from [[Nathan Phillips Square]] south to [[Lake Ontario]].

On the weekend of the Grey Cup, there was a "Celebration of Football" with games hosted at the Rogers Centre at amateur, high school, and university level, including the 43rd [[Vanier Cup]], the [[Canadian Interuniversity Sport|CIS]] football championship. The [[Vanier Cup]] game was held on November 23, 2007, at Rogers Centre with the [[Manitoba Bisons]] defeating the [[Saint Mary's Huskies]]. This marked the first time the Vanier Cup has been held in conjunction with the Grey Cup.

==Game Summary==
The Roughriders received the opening kickoff. The teams traded possessions back and forth until a 16-yard [[field goal]] by Bombers kicker [[Troy Westwood]] gave Winnipeg an early 3-0 lead late in the opening quarter. Near the start of the second quarter, a Westwood punt had moved the Roughriders to their own 10 yard line, and they would concede a safety to make it 5-0. On Saskatchewan's next possession, they would receive an illegal block penalty and concede their second consecutive safety to make the score 7-0 in Winnipeg's favour. Later in the second quarter, [[Ryan Dinwiddie|Ryan Dinwiddie's]] attempted pass to [[Milt Stegall]] would be intercepted by James Johnson for a game-tying touchdown. [[Luca Congi]] would add a field goal on the last play of the half to put Saskatchewan ahead 10-7. 

On the third play of the second half, Dinwiddie fumbled, and the Roughriders would capitalize with a field goal to extend their lead to 13-7. The Bombers offense would quickly respond, with Dinwiddie throwing to [[Derick Armstrong]] for a touchdown that gave Winnipeg a 14-13 lead.

Near the end of the third quarter, Johnson's second interception of the game would lead to Saskatchewan being in position for a short field goal, until [[Doug Brown (gridiron football)|Doug Brown]] appeared to stop Roughriders quarterback [[Kerry Joseph]] on third down, giving possession back to the Bombers. Saskatchewan coach [[Kent Austin]] successfully challenged the placement of the ball leading to Congi retaking the lead for Saskatchewan. 

On the Roughriders' first possession of the fourth quarter, Joseph passed to [[Andy Fantuz]] for a touchdown, giving Saskatchewan a 9-point lead. Another well-placed punt by Westwood led to the third conceded safety by the Roughriders, leaving the Bombers within a touchdown of tying the game. Later on, a long pass interference penalty would bring Winnipeg into position for another Westwood field goal to make the score 23-19. On the Bombers' final possession, Johnson would intercept Dinwiddie for a CFL record 3rd time, sealing the 23-19 win for the Saskatchewan Roughriders<ref>{{Cite web|title=2007-11-25 Game Tracker - Saskatchewan Roughriders vs. Winnipeg Blue Bombers (1471)|url=https://www.cfl.ca/games/1471/|access-date=November 19, 2021|website=CFL.ca|language=en}}</ref>
