    The
    BC Lions
    are a professional
    Canadian football
    team based in
    Vancouver, British Columbia
    . The Lions compete in the
    West Division
    of the
    Canadian Football League
    (CFL), and play their home games at
    BC Place
    .
    The Lions played their first season in
    1954
    , 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 10 times, winning six of those games, with their most recent championship occurring in
    2011
    .
    The Lions were the first
    Western Canadian
    team to have won the
    Grey Cup
    at home, having done so in
    1994
    and
    2011
    , before
    Saskatchewan
    won in
    2013
    , while also becoming the only team to beat an
    American-based
    franchise
    in a championship game, a feat accomplished in 1994. The Lions hold the second longest playoff streak in CFL history, making the playoffs every season from the
    1997 CFL season
    to the
    2016 CFL season
    , failing to make the playoffs for the first time in over 20 seasons in 2017 (only the Edmonton Eskimos have had a longer playoff streak; theirs lasted for 34 seasons from 1972 to 2005).
    With the Winnipeg Blue Bombers Grey Cup win in 2019 after a 29-year wait, the Lions currently have the longest Grey Cup drought of the West Division teams, last winning in 2011.
