The Toronto Argonauts Football Club is pleased to announce a partnership with PickupPal.com as the official ridesharing partner for the 2009 season.  This service will also be offered for the final 2008 regular season home game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Thursday, October 30.

PickupPal connects like-minded drivers and passengers who wish to reduce their carbon footprint while making it easier and more fun to get where they are going.

“In these difficult economic times, PickupPal is committed to providing a unique service which not only helps people save money, but also has a positive impact on the environment,” said Brent Drewry, EVP Business Development with PickupPal.  “Professional sports teams like the Argos are leading the way by extending our service to their fans.”

Toronto Argonauts COO Brad Watters remarked, “Many Argos fans commute to our games from outside the downtown core.  PickupPal.com provides our fans an alternate way to get to Rogers Centre, saving gas money, while reducing emissions, traffic congestion and parking costs.  We’re happy to partner with PickupPal to give greater choice in transportation to our fans.”
