No matter the result of Sunday’s Grey Cup, a lengthy drought was going to end.

When all was said and done, it was the longer of the two droughts that was snapped, as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 33-12 to win the CFL championship.

It’s the Blue Bomber’s first title since 1990 and now the Tiger-Cats will have to wait at least one more year before trying to win their first Grey Cup since 1999.

Andrew Harris led the way for his hometown team on Sunday, rushing for 134 yards and adding 35 more through the air.

He scored a pair of touchdowns in the victory and became the first player in CFL history to win Most Valuable Player and Most Valuable Canadian in the same Grey Cup game.

While plenty of the talk was about the Blue Bombers ending their Grey Cup drought, another lengthy streak finally came to an end on Sunday.

Diehard Blue Bombers fan Chris Matthews finally got to put on pants after watching his team cruise to victory.

The Winnipeg man has only worn shorts since making a guarantee to his friends in 2001 that he wouldn’t don pants again until his team won the Grey Cup.

He’s stayed true to his word despite living in one of the coldest places on the planet, but now his nearly two-decade-long commitment is over.

Another highlight of the Grey Cup for many was Keith Urban performing the halftime show.

There's usually plenty of critique for whoever is tasked with entertaining the country at halftime, but Urban's performance has received rave reviews.
