I attended all sessions, sorry for the lack of live commentary. I had no idea Rogers Arena is 28 years old now, even though it's not the newest, the double concourse, additional bathrooms, and natural light make it feel more modern than it really is. Just another one that we'll have to soundly beat when our new barn goes up in a few years.

It probably wasn't a total sellout but most sections were filled up pretty well even considering the lack of superstar power. If on TV you saw the section behind a player looking really empty, that was usually at the start of the match before everyone found their seats, it's also where the VIPs were and they tended to be in and out a lot.

Foot traffic around the area got nuts when combined with the Coldplay crowd next door, but for the most part Van did a nice job hosting and even mostly held off on too much gloomy weather. Canadian fans were boisterous when needed but polite about service noise.

Real cameras weren't allowed so all I got were phone potato snaps, but here's a sample:
