REGINA — The 2013 Grey Cup is a sellout.

The CFL and Grey Cup organizers made the announcement Wednesday, more than five months before the game is scheduled to be played.

This year’s CFL championship game will be played Nov. 24 at Mosaic Stadium in Regina.

The remaining 5,000 seats were sold following a 101-hour lottery.
