It would be nice if it was as easy as a Jack Simpson's bleachers on steroids, but we're talking 10x the size here.


IF they want this to be a public fieldhouse, I'd like to see airport style drop-off/pick up through roads, not just service roads only. It would be great for taxi and bus/shuttle efficiency after games too.
I've been in Rogers Centre as they've converted the Baseball seating to Football seating and it didn't take very long at all.
