Edmonton Eskimos quarterback James Franklin visited Killam on Monday, Sept. 28 at the Living Room.

The Living Room is hosting “Grid Iron Good News” through the NFL season, showing Monday Night Football on the big screen, and will be featuring special guests from the Eskimos current roster and alumni every month, to speak during half-time.
