The eastern semi-final, a match-up between the Hamilton Tiger-cats and the B.C. Lions and the Lancaster flyby helped get fans were geared up for this one.

The team asked fans to dress in all black to create a “Blackout” in the stands and this fan took it to heart.

Then it was Nature Boy Rick Flair’s turn to get the crowd and the team going and it worked.

The Ticats came out fighting, and things just kind of bounced their way.

The Ticats may have made it look easy today, but there were some doubts heading into this one after they dropped three in a row.
