And before you throw stones at Stamps fans Resurrection, here's an article from last season. You have a smaller stadium and it's new which attracted extra fans, as will Calgary's new stadium, but Winnipeg isn't a slam dunk football town.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers hosted the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the Banjo Bowl at Investors Group Field on Sunday.
This is one game the home team expects to sell out every year, but overall, this season ticket sales have been disappointing.
Sunday’s game, the teams sixth at home this season, was the first sellout of 2014, something they had already done twice by this time last year.

Overall, the team is averaging 30,002 fans per game, down 1,846 customers per game compared to the first six home contests in 2013
"You know, it does surprise us a little bit, especially with the winning and the product on the field. It certainly is surprising,” said Bomber fan Dan Labelle outside the stadium Sunday

Which is exactly what you were saying when you took a shot at our fans.
The lower corners at investor group field often look like the upper corners of McMahon, except they're lower.....nicer.......and in a brand new amazing stadium.
