Must be the same planet where paying to sit in a seat and watch hockey is a 'sports facility'.
It's an event centre. An entertainment centre.
I've actually been on Saddle Dome ice before, and I'd say I'm part of a small fraction of CP posters (the die hard of the diehardiest) flames fans around.
you go there, you sit in a seat, you eat bloating, fatty foods and you occasionally stand up only to sit back down again.
It's about as much of a 'sports facility' as my living room.
This is right up there with EE's assertion that it would improve the arts scene in the city.
It's an entertainment venue, simple as that.
