The 42nd Grey Cup football game was played on November 27, 1954, before a full house (27,321 in attendance) at Varsity Stadium in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1]
The underdog Edmonton Eskimos won a contest over the Montreal Alouettes 26–25. The game, replete with record performances and a touch of controversy, is considered one of the finest Grey Cup games ever.[2]
