Calgarians to Party in their Grey Cup Parkas

Calgary, Alberta - More than 10,000 entries were received for ATB Financial's Party in your Parka Grey Cup contest. Amie Sugden of Calgary and her family are the lucky winners of the Ultimate Grey Cup prize package, valued at $7,000.

Starting on November 22, the Sugdens will board a Westjet plane and head for Edmonton. While in Edmonton, the family will stay at the Westin hotel and enjoy spending a $2,000 credit on their ATB Financial MasterCard.

On game day, the Sugdens will have a great view from the 45 yard line and VIP passes for the exclusive indoor seats in the Director's Club.
