You have to count all of the independant parking lots that are set up surrounding the Stampede Grounds as well. Also, lots of street parking. The West Villiage area is not even close in terms of parking availabilty. Most anything South of there is zoned residential parking.

When I take the LRT after a Flames game, two trains (one North and one South) clears out most of the platform. So that's about 1500 passagers. Let be generous and bump that up to 4 cars or 3000 passengers. That still leaves 15,000 people who walk or car it. Not sure how forcing the majority to take transit will work. How do you get enough LRTs on the line? There's no siding tracks near by...
