Surely, you would increase the capacity or get to close to whatever McMahon currently supports. So, if the stadium is MLS ready now (even though it wouldn't be sustainable in today's Calgary market) it would still only hold 30,000. If we're going full out with a state of the art facility why not have more seats?
McMahon I think they mentioned was 36k but they avg closer to 29k. No point making more seats if you aren't selling them. Although it can increase to 50k for special events.
