Original Toronto Star caption: But while McDonald was groaning over the timing of his good fortune; winners in two other households were hurriedly packing to catch this morning's CP Air flight to Vancouver. Denis Foster; 60; of Ruddington Dr. in North York last saw a Grey Cup game in 1952. That was the last time his beloved Argos won the mug. Could it be a good omen? Foster; a worker with the Liquor Control Board of Ontario; will see Sunday's game with his wife; Ruth. His winning entry: Thirty years of famine; We never did give up; B.C. can keep its salmon; We'll just take the cup.
