Cavalry isn't too bad, all things considered. Halifax is simply stunning. Edmonton, York9, and Pacific are underwhelming.
Cavalry can only go up next year once pricing has been adjusted a bit. I honestly feel that they can average 4,500 to 5,000 next year, which would better reflect the demand in this market. Having more people through the gate, even at a lower cost, will help the bottom line through concessions, merch, beer, and parking.
Is York9's stadium their permanent home? That's such a shame given the population around there. It would be easy to blame Toronto FC having a stronghold there, but if they played in a more intimate venue, it would be a lot more appealing. I seem to recall that their pricing was pretty wild as well. I have never been in person, but it looks and sounds dead. I don't really care, mind you, other than that I would like to see league-wide stability.
