This is coming from a season ticket holder who attends probably 6-9 games a year and loves the CFL.

There are college stadiums in the U.S. that are much older and hold more people and it works and works well.
That's true, but the long-term plans are bigger than just CFL. MLS, Olympics, World Cup, musical performances... these are opportunities that Calgary will be looking at and need to be ready for. McMahon just doesn't serve the purposes to handle these new, larger events anymore.
