I believe the Stamps already did studies four or five years ago in regards to renovations to McMahon and it was cost prohibitive because it's all concrete and costly to do anything to the concourse without altering the stability of the structure. I agree the sightlines are pretty good but that's pretty well where the good ends as the suites in particular are laughable and that's an area where the team is losing money compared to the rest of the league. In a cold weather city like Calgary ideally you would like a fair amount of suites for your outdoor stadium.
