Roughriders sell out Saturday's B.C. Lions game

The Saskatchewan Roughriders will enjoy another sellout for their next home game, set for Saturday afternoon against the B.C. Lions.

The team announced Thursday that all 30,945 seats have been spoken for, filling Mosaic Stadium for the fifth time this season.

"We are once again thankful and appreciative of the amazing support the Riders continue to receive," said Jim Hopson, team president and CEO.

Hopson also said the traditional local-market blackout has been lifted for the television broadcast.

After Saturday, the Roughriders will have just one more home game in the regular season schedule, against the Calgary Stampeders on Nov. 7.

Both games are crucial for all the teams involved as every club is in contention for a playoff spot.
