Little was known last weekend why he was on Clifton Hill visiting us, but his appearance caused a welcome uproar among his surprised fans and spectators. Easily approachable and kind-hearted, one lucky fan at Boston Pizza got to wear his Stanley Cup ring — and of course, we took a picture!

The secret is out! Grant Marshall will be teaming up with Sinead Kerr, the retired (since 2011) Scottish figure skater who represented Great Britain, on the 4th season of the Battle of the Blades, shot in Toronto! Sinead teamed up with her brother John Kerr in 2000 and went on to to become two-time European bronze medalists in 2009 and 2011 and British national champions from 2004-2010. They placed 10th at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Italy and 8th at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.

Battle of the Blades, if you haven’t seen it, began Sunday, September 22nd, 2013 and continues Sunday’s at 8:00pm. The show combines athletes from hockey and figure skating,  such as Grant Marshall and Sinead Kerr, in pairings of 8 and these accomplished and graceful figure skating professionals must try and turn the not-so-delicate hockey players into ice skating champs. Ron MacLean and Kurt Browning host the show, and each week a pairing gets voted off based on viewership votes. The winners compete for charity.
Grant had a blast on Clifton Hill and let us know that he would be back shortly to visit us again — we look forward to having you back and we will have a seat reserved for you at Boston Pizza anytime! Since Grant is such a fan of Clifton Hill and our restaurants and nightlife, let’s show our support to him and Sinead and cast your vote for Team Sinead & Grant!!!
