Welcome to Riderville: Liquor stores giving away face paint with every purchase (Photo)

Saskatchewan Roughrider excitement has officially reached a fever pitch in Regina, and the Grey Cup is still four days away. The familiar sea of green is everywhere in the city and local businesses are getting in on the buzz.

That was made readily apparent during a trip to a local liquor store. With every purchase, the staff was tossing these little gems into the bag:

That’s right, face paint. White, silver, and green face paint to be exact, the official colours of the Roughriders. Sponsored by a Long Island iced tea company, no less. It’s a neat idea and will surely be put to good use by many of the local Rider fans.

It’s important to support the team and all, just be careful about getting mixed up with a face painter.
