But anyway, even though the stadium is owned by BBB, the Bombers have on numerous occasions made the connection between stadium event dates and overall team profitability. I'm not sure exactly how the arrangement is structured, but it appears to be the Bombers (and not the Bisons) who making money from additional events like the FIFA Women's World Cup, Heritage Classic, major concerts or what have you. I suspect it would be the same way for Valour.
(And speaking of special events at IG Field, I wonder if the Packers/Raiders game is still going ahead? It's now less than 3 months away...)

Well it's listed as the host stadium for the 2019 Oakland Raiders scheduled game against the Packers so it must be true.
