The footprint for Commonwealth Stadium works pretty good for a soccer field.
62,000 seats.
do we know the exact dates for games in Toronto and Vancouver ?
I don't get the impression of too much Excitement for this tournament. Not sure why I feel this way.
People don't seem to be embracing this in Vancouver like they did for 2010 Winter Olympics.
and I am concerned about a terrorist attack.

Yeah, I'd say a little too late for Edmonton, especially if you are thinking replacing Toronto or Vancouver. And I think it would be natural for an Olympic host city to have a little more buzz around it several months ahead, if there was indeed buzz in late fall 2009 leading into the games. I mean, the World Cup might be a bigger event on a national and world scale, but an Olympics is definitely a more major event to the host city itself so it would be natural for a city to be more excited about them this early. How are tickets selling in Toronto and Vancouver? All I hear about Toronto is the multiple of face prices people are paying for tickets, I'm not out west so not as tuned in to that there.
