Monday, July 17, 2017 — TORONTO – The Toronto Argonauts Football Club and the Toronto Argonauts Alumni Association are proud to announce that quarterback Doug Flutie has been named an All-Time Argo.
Flutie played in Toronto for two seasons and was named the league’s Most Outstanding Player in both, leading the Argos to back-to-back Grey Cup Championships in 1996 and 1997. He was also named the Grey Cup MVP in both games. The product of Boston College holds the Argos’ single season record for most passing yards (5,720 – 1996), most pass completions (434 – 1996) and most passing touchdowns (47 – 1997).
The newest All-Time Argo will be honoured prior to the Argos game on Monday, July 24 as part of the team’s celebration of the 20th anniversary of the ’96 and ’97 Back-to-Back Grey Cup Championships. As part of the celebrations, fans attending the game will receive a commemorative Doug Flutie Bobblehead (while supplies last). The Argos are also throwing back ticket prices for this game with a special offer of two tickets for only $19.97.
Flutie’s name and number will be added to the All-Time Argos banner that hangs from the rafters above the south end zone at BMO Field.
All-Time Argos are nominated and voted on by the Toronto Argonauts Alumni Association. Flutie is the 24th player to be named an All-Time Argo.
