The Gee-Gees football team closed out a two-game road trip in Guelph on Saturday afternoon. Coming off a blowout win against York last week, the boys in Grey and Garnet hoped they could keep their momentum going with Panda Game less than a week away.
After selling out in less than three days, Panda Game tickets are now being resold for exorbitant amounts online.
Entering the game, the Gee-Gees were undefeated in regulation, sitting in first place in the OUA with a record of 9-0-1, while Carleton sat in fifth with a weaker 6-3-2 record.
The 2018 game will mark the 50th edition of Panda, and just the sixth since its reincarnation in 2013.
The Gee-Gees won last year’s Panda Game—well at least 59 minutes of it.
The highly anticipated Panda Game will be back at its historic homeland as the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group announced a multi-year agreement to host the football classic at TD Place.
The Carleton Ravens won the 2014 Panda Game 33–31 with just seconds left in the game. Check out how the game went down according to students and Fulcrum staff.
Entering the game with a 2-0 record and sitting at number eight in the Ontario University Athletic (OUA) standings, the Gee-Gees had a disappointing game against the number seven Guelph Gryphons in Ottawa on Sept. 13.
