Attendance in Edmonton was 5781 according to this link: http://www.calgaryherald.com/sports/soccer/Toronto+routs+Edmonton+Nutrilite+Canadian+Champion ship/4686478/story.html. Their home field seats only 3500 fans so even though the crowd looks bad in 60000 seat stadium, it's still extra revenue in the team's pockets

And to be fair, the Montreal game was going up against Game 7 of the Habs-Bruins. No sport would compete with that game.
