^ That is some peak 60s stadium architecture right there. But something that bold and audacious probably wouldn't have aged that well. I suspect Edmonton was better off going with Commonwealth Stadium... a relatively economical and efficient design that has stood the test of time.
Incidentally, when I visited Rice Stadium in Houston a few years back (pre-renovations) I was amazed by how much it resembled Commonwealth in terms of layout and configuration. Does anyone know if the architects deliberately set out to closely follow Rice?
