I agree with Whitetiger. I just picked up my wristband, and luckily there was no line. I understand the need to get the ticket pickup away from the front of the BMO centre. But I feel horrible for people with limited mobility. I've had to do something similar on crutches, and it is not fun. And there is no legal parking by the grandstand that isn't $15, which I am not paying to pick up tickets. So illegal parking it is.

But you literally walk from the front of the grandstand, all the way to the north, past some staff washrooms, loading bays, you think you might be going the wrong way, around the end of the building, nope don't go up the stairs, around the corner, and you are literally almost in the rodeo infield. No signs. Nothing. Then you can see the roped off lines. Get into the building, turn the corner, then pick up your wristband. And then walk out the front door. They should add some signs around the building, and not just have 1 volunteer at the front of the building.
