This makes me think the rumor the Flames are looking at a dual purpose stadium is true.
Moveable ceilings is the key for that. Ceiling comes down for a 20k hockey stadium and then transforms for a 40k capacity football stadium.
Not sure how the lower bowl would have to collapse to make room for a football field, and hopefully whatever they do doesn't impact the sightlines for a hockey game (Flames rink should be priority #1 IMO) but I would be shocked if that is not something the Flames are looking at.
