The Stanley Cup is the oldest professional sports trophy in North America. It was donated by the former Governor General of Canada Lord Stanley of Preston in 1892 as an award for Canada's top-ranking amateur Ice Hockey club. Today, it is the top trophy of the National Hockey League (NHL).

The original Grey Cup was made in 1909. It's gotten a lot bigger since then with all the names on it and all. It has been awarded annually to the winner of the CFL championship game, except for 4 times between 1916 and 1919. The 100th Grey Cup game was held in 2012.

The CFL was formed in 1958; the 1958 Grey Cup saw Winnipeg Blue Bombers defeat Hamilton Tiger-Cats 35-28. The game is considered to have been one of the most exciting ever.
