I understand that somewhat, but Calgary is still a rapidly growing city and 60-70 strikes me as average in most major markets.
- Edmonton's Commonwealth stadium is 60-75K
- Vancouver is 55-60K and they're latte sipping elitists who snub their noses at Football as its too rough for their tender sensibilities
40,000 seems like the absolute minimum.
