With scorching temperatures on Friday night, the only thing generating as much heat as the evening sun was the Saskatchewan Roughriders defensive line, causing havoc with eight sacks, on their way to a 21-18 win over the Edmonton Elks.

There is no doubt the future of the car show is in good hands, with exhibitors like 11-year-old Cohen Weiman of Bruno.
