I heard Saskatoon couldn't sellout the World Juniors, or the Memorial Cup. There is only about 250,000 people in that city and would require 7% of their population to attend games in order to sellout a 17,500 building.

I know some people think the love for the Riders would equal an equally as rabid of fanbase for a hockey team but I don't agree. It is easy enough to sellout Mosaic in Regina 9 times a year (mostly on the weekend) but I don't think Saskatoon will consistently sellout a hockey rink when the Blue Jackets are in town on a Tuesday in January.
