Removable seating on the endzones to allow the chuckwagon track to still be usable. Then you have have the multi-million dollar Stampede plus the Stampeders all in one venue... thus making it economically viable, not to mention the stadium would be downtown!
This idea has also crossed my mind - I think it's worth investigating. It always bothered me that the Stampede grandstand is nicer than the football stadium. We are now a city of over 1 million and we need an outdoor venue that is not an embarrassment.
