The 58th Grey Cup was played on November 28, 1970, before 32,669 fans at CNE Stadium in Toronto. The Montreal Alouettes defeated the Calgary Stampeders 23–10. The 1970 Grey Cup marks the only time in CFL history that two third-place teams have met in the championship game. The contest itself was marred by woeful field conditions, as throughout the game several sections of the natural-grass surface came away in chunks.
