    That'd be nice to have for GC, new seats.
    That's what they said when I asked at the front office. I suggested that they sell the seats to help offset SOME of the costs...but not sure if they thought I was serious.

      When the seats are replaced - replace them with deep green seats, and have yellow/gold seats spelling 'Edmonton Eskimos', or a big EE logo

      Kinda like BMO Field, or numerous other stadia worldwide

        i'd love to get my season tix seats from CW... nobody else has held those season tix since the Esks moved there. Only thing is... it's even more difficult to split up the seats as they are 'separate'. How do they split seat 2 from seat 3 if they share the armrest/separator?

          Anyone have any idea what the new locker room will look like? That's the one reason they are selling off these lockers. They are renovating the EE locker room this off-season.

            I suspect that not as many people will be buying their seats as we think and it won't really be a problem. They'll just chop up the seats to satisfy the people that want them and scrap the rest of them.

              A typical car seat runs about 70watts. For calculation purposes, make the Commonwealth seat heater 100watts. Running for 3 hours @ 10 cents kw-hr works out to 3 cents a seat. Muliply that by average attendance of 40,000 seats gives a per game cost of $1200.

              You can get a good heated car seat cover for $100. Let's say $500 installed. 62000 @ $500 makes it $31 million to retrofit Commonwealth.

              Heated seats will eliminate the need for a domed stadium.

              Cost to add roof to BC Place, $458 million. Subtract $31 million leaves $427 million. Use that for an inground heating system like Lambeau and you'll still have change left over.
              Though I am no expert on this, I would suspect installing them outdoors would present big problems...not to mention the fact that they are only really required for 1 or 2 months of the football season.

              Also, would there be some way to shut off the seats that no one is sitting in? Which would also add to costs..and if not then it's a huge waste of energy.

                They could also give out those little seat pads to Season Ticket holders...I know it makes a huge difference just having that little bit of insulation on the bottom of the seat in keeping the butt warm. But that would also mean doing something nice for the fans and that's just not what the Esks are all about lately!

                  Great article about the lockers....

                  By TERRY JONES, SUN MEDIA

                  Jared Zabransky had no idea.

                  He'd noticed all the little stickmen, 20 of them, drawn inside his locker stall.

                  And he could read the little plaques dedicated to the people who previously resided in his dressing room stall: Larry Washington, Cliff Olander, Stephan Jones, Rick Worman, Steve Taylor, Tom Muecke, Tony Burke, Shawn Daniels, Bart Hendricks, Jason Johnson and Stephan LeFors.

                  Yesterday as the columnist was writing those names down and counting up the number of little stickmen, Zabransky, the Eskimos' third- string quarterback, wondered what in the world I was doing with my head in his locker.

                    Do they include the sweaty jockstraps, too?

                                Is it true that the Esks locker room does/didn't have Air Conditioning and that the visitors room does?
