Original Toronto Star caption: Young Supporters put up a solid front for Calgary at one of the many Grey Cup parties in the Royal York Hotel last night. The hotel lobby, always a mob scene on the night before the Grey Cup game is played in Toronto, was packed tighter than usual as thousands of party seekers stayed inside rather than brave the heavy rain to look for the action in other parts of downtown Toronto.
