as for stadium attendance, that probably has more to do with who's in the game than the weather that day but ticket sales either way are settled long before game day and are more dependent on who is playing than the weather.
Times change - People don't want to freeze in the stands anymore - they want a comfortable environment. If the CFL is looking to attract fans they need to think of things like that. That comes from a person who spent a lot of time freezing in the stands and is too old to deal with it anymore
