What a ridiculous comment. Aside from the American ass licking which is gross at a time like this, it's inaccurate. Many of those oversized US stadiums are old, with bench seating to start with. The CFL (like the NFL) doesn't build stadiums, cities do. And they do that for the civic good not one pro sports team (at least in Canada). No sports team in Canada CFL/MLS/CPL is going to draw over 40k fans
regularly so why would we build them? If the America that you love with ten times the population wants to frivolously build stadiums so be it. Aside from US worship BS there is nothing wrong with most of our stadiums for a country our size.
Would you say our arenas suck too? Canada has to support winter sport as well.
