And to merge the two ideas, it would be great to see the national team play a friendly at Spruce Meadows some day. I realize that a half-full BMO field can still fit 3x more people than a packed Spruce Meadows, so I'm not talking Canada vs. USA here. But I think that people would still come out for a friendly vs. (insert random Central American country here). It would help grow the following for the CanMNT (or CanWNT for that matter) by playing in some of these "new" markets with neat little stadiums like Calgary, Victoria, Halifax, etc.
