Roughriders re-sign veteran defensive lineman Micah Johnson
Feb 07, 2025
The 36-year-old has played four seasons with the Green and White.
A sea of green will wash over Mosaic Stadium next week.
The Saskatchewan Roughriders announced their first game of the 2021 CFL season — a clash with the B.C. Lions on Aug. 6 — has officially been sold-out, meaning 33,356 fans will take in the action.
It’s the first time the Riders will take to the field since the West Final against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Nov. 17, 2019 — a 20-13 loss for the Green and White.
There will be no requirements or public health orders in effect for the game, meaning anyone can go — vaccinated or not.
This has brought forward concerns from people, health experts and politicians on social media.
Sask. NDP leader Ryan Meili said a couple days ago that if vaccines were required, the game would have sold-out already.
