  • The BC Lions are a professional Canadian football team competing in the West Division of Canadian Football League (CFL). Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, the Lions play their home games at BC Place Stadium in Downtown Vancouver, having previously played at Empire Stadium in East Vancouver from 1954 to 1982. Due to the installation of a retractable roof at BC Place, the Lions will play at a temporary stadium located at Empire Field for the 2010 season and for the first five regular season games of the 2011 season. The Lions played their first season in 1954, making them the youngest franchise in the CFL, and have played every season since. As such, they are the oldest professional sports franchise in the city of Vancouver and in the province of British Columbia. They have appeared in the league's Grey Cup championship game nine times, winning five of those games, with their most recent championship occurring in 2006. The Lions are also the only Western Canada team to have won the Grey Cup at home, having done so in 1994, while also becoming the only team to beat an American based franchise in a championship game, a feat accomplished in that same game. The Lions currently have the second longest active playoff streak, and sixth longest of all time, having made the playoffs for 14 straight seasons. __TOC__
