The 1983 Grey Cup marked the first championship game where weather was not a deciding factor , as the final was held indoors for the first time at the new BC Place Stadium in Vancouver . Most notably , however , 1983 marked the end of one of the longest droughts in the history of the trophy . The Toronto Argonauts , winners of a record 10 Grey Cups , had not sipped from the silver chalice since 1952 . The Argos faced a difficult task . Not only were they opposing the BC Lions with a partisan crowd behind them , but Toronto ’ s star quarterback Condredge Holloway was battling the flu . He did manage , however , to complete a 14 - yard touchdown toss to Jan Carinci in the second quarter . Trailing 17 - 7 , Toronto coach Bob O ' Billovich elected to go with Joe Barnes at pivot in the second half . Slowly Barnes got the Argos offence going , only to be negated when Hank Ilesic missed on three field goals . Two were good for singles , however , as Toronto cut its deficit to eight . When Ilesic finally split the uprights on a 43 - yard attempt in the fourth quarter , it put the Argos within striking distance . Then with four minutes remaining , Barnes executed one of the most important drives in Argonauts history . He hit Paul Pearson with a pass at the BC 45 , but the ball popped loose into the air . It was another famed Argo bounce , as Emanuel Tolbert caught the ball to keep the drive alive . Barnes went to work again , throwing to Tolbert at the BC 25 and another pass to Pearson on the three . With 2 : 44 left in regulation , Barnes flipped to Cedric Minter in the end zone , giving the Boatmen their initial lead of the game . But the Argos failed on the two - point attempt . Leading by one , Toronto forced BC to punt on its next possession , allowing the Argos to run out most of the clock . BC ’ s Roy Dewalt had one last chance to throw a Hail Mary pass on the final play , but his prayer wasn ’ t answered , as long suffering Argos fans went into the streets in jubilation . BC scored its points on touchdown passes by Dewalt to Mervyn Fernandez and John Henry White . Lui Passaglia also kicked a 31 - yard field goal . Trivia . Hank Ilesic , who came directly from high school to the CFL , was playing in his 6th consecutive Grey Cup victory , and 7th consecutive Grey Cup game , all in his first 7 years in the league . This marked the first occasion that the Grey Cup was played indoors . This was the first Grey Cup game played at BC Place Stadium .
Ryan Field ( stadium ) Ryan Field is a stadium in Evanston , Illinois , United States . It is primarily used for American football , and is the home field of the Northwestern University Wildcats football team . The field opened in 1926 and holds 47 , 130 people . Prior to 1997 , the stadium was named Dyche Stadium , for William Dyche , Class of 1882 , former Evanston mayor and overseer of the building project . In 1997 , the field was renamed Ryan Field in honor of the family of Patrick G . Ryan , who was then the chairman of Northwestern ' s board of trustees . The renaming was made by the other members of the board in recognition of the Ryan family ' s leadership and numerous contributions to Northwestern , including the lead gift to the Campaign for Athletic Excellence , Northwestern ' s fundraising drive for athletic facilities . History . At the time it was constructed , Dyche Stadium was considered one of the finest college football stadiums in the country . The stadium originally consisted of two semi - circular grandstands on either sideline , with the west ( home ) sideline having a small , curved upper deck whose 2 ends abut in matching concrete towers . The purpose of the curved grandstands was to maximize the number of fans sitting close to the action . Endzone seating was later added in the south endzone , and in 1952 McGaw Memorial Hall was built beyond the north endzone . The stadium had an artificial turf surface from 1973 to 1996 . Prior to the 1997 season , natural grass was installed and the playing surface was lowered approximately five feet to improve sight lines from the lowest rows of the grandstands . The Chicago Bears hosted their first home game of the 1970 season at Dyche Stadium as an experiment ; the NFL had demanded that the Bears move out of Wrigley Field because Wrigley ' s seating capacity was under 50 , 000 . After Evanston residents petitioned city officials to block the team from moving there permanently , the Bears ended up moving to Chicago ' s Soldier Field the following year . Transportation . The closest transit stations are Metra commuter railroad ' s Central Street station and Chicago Transit Authority ' s Central station on the Purple Line . Pedicab services are frequently available around the stadium during Wildcat home games . In popular culture . Parts of " The Express " , a 2008 film about Syracuse University Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis starring Rob Brown as Davis , and Dennis Quaid as Davis ' Syracuse coach , Ben Schwartzwalder , were filmed at Ryan Field . Parts of " Four Friends " , a 1981 film directed by Arthur Penn , were filmed at Ryan Field .
