Did you like the stadium though WCJ?
Know the smallest things and the biggest things, the shallowest things and the deepest things. As if it were a straight road mapped out on the ground ... These things cannot be explained in detail. From one thing, know ten thousand things. When you attain the Way of strategy there will not be one thing you cannot see. You must study hard.

Yeah, I loved it, jk.

The lighting is beautiful. The screen is better than watching the field.

The fresh air is wonderful.

Looking up through the roof is wonderful.

I wonder how loud it was for the Eskimos when we made noise.

I thought that until I saw it with the lights on the cables, and it put a whole new aspect on it. Bud won't cut it, in the glass or on the nameplate.

Reminds me of the lights on the Lions Gate Bridge, which IIRC were the idea of Grace McCarthy. How about calling it the GracieDome? :tease:

More seriously, how about Lions Gate Stadium? I can think of three or four companies with that name, and if Bob were here he'd be going after them for some dough.

They've been calling Rogers arena the phonebooth or the rog for a year. Kinda stale.
