I'll have to see a game in BC place, but the configuration at Empire just feels like a better facilitiy, if one can "feel" such things via television.
Old Empire Stadium had bad drainage problems which they could never seem to solve. For some reason artificial turf seemed to fix the problem.

This new stadium looks great and I hope it brings other cities (Calgary) to get upgraded as well.
