Cat Fight Revenge: Ti-Cats Beat Lions

Ti-Cats Beat Lions in Cat Fight Revenge

Sep 30, 2018 | 8:52 AM

After losing 35-32 in overtime last week in B.C., the Hamilton Tiger-Cats demolished the Lions 40-10 Saturday at Tim Horton’s Field.

Coaches will tell you over and over…never give your opposition fodder for inspiration…looks like Wally’s going to have to refresh that message.

Many fans who called, tweeted, and emailed CHML’s 5th Quarter post-game show, believe a video of B.C. players dancing on the Ticats logo at Tim Hortons Field during Friday’s pregame walk-through.

The Ti-Cats saw it all before the game…and there’s your inspiration.  It appears on this night, a ticked off Tiger…can whoop a cocky Lion.
