'Toronto Argonauts Tickets'

'

The Toronto Argonauts Football Club is one of the oldest professional gridiron football teams in the world. Originally founded by the Argonaut Rowing Club in 1873 (which served as the owner until 1957), the team slowly evolved from an early form of rugby into its current incarnation. Before joining the CFL, it was part of the Ontario Rugby Football Union in 1883 and then the Interprovincial Rugby Football Union in 1907. The Argonauts won the first of a record 17

Grey Cup

victories over the University of Toronto in 1914. In its most dominant stretch, Toronto won three-straight titles between 1945 and 1947 and again in 1950 and 1952. Despite a 30-year drought, Toronto climbed to the top of the CFL again in 1983 and 1991, then won two-straight cups in 1996 and 1997 with CFL great and college legend Doug Flutie at the helm. Damon Allen, who played for the Argonauts between 2003 and 2007, is the all-time passing leader in all of professional football history.
