Add to that the growing amount of "Stampede" options outside of the grounds (Cowboys tent, Wildhorse tent, Fort Calgary, etc) and you have to think that the attendance will probably plateau.

Although the investment that they are expected to make to celebrate the 100th anniversary next year could probably change all of that.
Yup. All of that is very true. And it won't happen for next year, but the 7 acre expansion north of the current park limits is set to open in 2013. We'll see if that allows for on-park growth.
