Okay Souray...thats going quite a ways off topic, even though it is true that the Domes roof is making it a weak venue for concerts. If you want to discuss arena issues we have lots of threads in the fire on ice forum talking about that for both Alberta teams. Also no need to get into another Edmonton vs. Calgary piddling match either which is the direction this appears to be heading.

Now back to the topic....an NFL regular season game in most any Canadian market is going to draw a good crowd and make a lot of money. The advantage Toronto might have is the corporate boxes may make the gate a bit more profitable...but Edmonton wouldn't be drawing from just Edmonton. NFL fans from Calgary, Saskatoon, Regina even Winnepeg would likely find a way to get to the game. IMO they'll easily charge $150 for a seat way out in the boonies and get it. I know I'd pay it especially if it was to watch two teams like the Pats and Bronco's.
