I don't disagree with that. The CPL in Commonwealth would be similar.
However, those World Cup qualifiers vs. Costa Rica & Mexico had an amazing atmosphere, and with new FIFA approved turf going into McMahon (yes, the stadium sucks but the sightlines are far superior to Commonwealth), I am optimistic that we may have the opportunity to host a friendly or two in Calgary leading up to the 2026 World Cup, as well as the Cavs in February 2025.
