Gaels fans,

This Saturday, the Gaels battle the Western Mustangs, for the right to drink from the Yates Cup. We need everyone's help to cheer us on to our first conference title since 1997.

I want to see the crowd jammed into Richardson Stadium like never before; let's break an attendance record!! Western needs to fear our 13th man!! The stands need to shake and we need to make the Mustangs feel your presence!!

The 13th man makes all the difference. Queen's University and the City of Kingston will be on the map in front of a national audience. Let's make it memorable, let's make it loud and let's send the Purple Ponies home with their tails between their legs.

I personally challenge all students, faculty, parents, kids and football fans from across Kingston, as well as alumni from across Canada, to show their Gaels spirit on Saturday.

GO GAELS GO!!
