“Reggie the Egyptian Rescue Dog”: The Final Cut: Reggie Has Been Invited to the Canadian Grey Cup: Penny’s Oodlecopter Replaces the Canadian Snowbirds Pass Over! Lola Larue Can Belt It Out! Chapter Fifty Nine (59)

Dylan the Westie and I have been invited to the 108th Grey Cup in Hamilton, Ontario on November 12. Prime Minister Justin “Black Face” Trudeau has invited me as his guest along with Dylan the Westie, Bob and Fay to watch the championship Canadian Football League game. We start off with high tea at the regal Imperial Hotel in Hamilton with Justin and Sophie Trudeau and their children. Sophie is distant and unhappy looking. I know I can smell unhappiness. We will visit the dressing room of the Hamilton Tiger Cats and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers who are competing for the Grey Cup. At the beginning of the game Bob and Fay will walk out to centre field and Dylan the Westie and I will sit by Lola Larue as she sings the national anthem of Canada. Then Dylan the Westie and I will take small flags and run around the field. Dylan the Westie will carry the Hamilton Tiger Cats flag and me the Winnipeg Blue Bombers flag. Dylan the Westie carried the gay pride flag once at the Gay Pride Day parade in Toronto years ago and says it will be easy. We will be practicing on Saturday afternoon.

Bob and Dylan the Westie have watched almost every Grey Cup since Dylan the Westie was born 13 years ago. There was always a small family party with potato chips, Cheesies, BBQ wings, fajitas and corn chips and salsa and of course beer.

Bob loves the Hamilton Tiger Cats and is excited but he has struck a deal that the 50/50 draw charitable cut will go to Reggie’s Dogs Foundation.

I will be watched on national television by millions and 25,000 noisy and excited fans most likely in winter conditions. Canada as been suffering with COVID for too long and although I am very nervous it is time for Canada to party like its 1967! Bob has promised that Dylan the Westie and I can split a cheeseburger and a few French Fries. WE DOGS LOVE MEAT! And yes, GO BOMBERS GO!

And it will be Penny in her Oodlecopter flying the pass over instead of the Canadian Snowbirds. GO PENNY GO!

Bob also says to us dogs he has a big secret. It is a BIG SECRET and it involves Joe and Jill Biden! What could it be?
