Hey, usually single game tickets for CFL games go on sale end of May or beginning of June. Because ticketmaster isn't handling the Esks reg. season kickoff the tickets are up for sale now.

Here's a good pic of the stadium. I went northside and row 11. Look how close you are to the field!

Proximity of stands to the field...otherwise, not much.

Yup, it does. Looks like the benches are going to be very close to that first row. Any seats in the permanent sections behind the benches are going to be a lot of fun.

Looks like a nice little park. Between the CFL and FCE games it'll get some use this year, I hope they put it to good use for the locals.

Ummm isn't this Toronto's home game, not ours?

That's what the schedule says, but with probably 90% of the crowd cheering for us, it's almost a home game

So, the ENTIRE CROWD will be only 5K?

That will have to be the smallest crowd for a regular-season CFL game in many decades (at least in Canada).

Cheers, Glen

The temp seating (all the "double letter" sections) is supposed to push capacity up to 20,000 for each of the games played.

Sorry, one tweak to that field... much better!

Hugo has already discussed the temp seating... as per the contention, I'm not so sure. Announced sure, but as per actual attendance, I'd be willing to bet there were a few games back when the Als were in the Big Owe fill time that they had crowds smaller than that. I wouldn't rule it out anyway, I mean, I've been to an Esks regular season game where the actual crowd was in the quad digits.

It's not an Eskimos home game, it's an Argos home game
