Agree.

Running track gone.

50 grand in Edmonton is not a stretch for any good quality game or event. Look forward not back.

Been to a couple NFL games and I will definitely give Commonwealth her due.

I have to say I really do prefer what's happening In MTS and ACC over these big boxy long Score boards down south which are becoming the norm. This is the frame of Honda Centers new board

I really like The Panthers Scoreboard. Favorite in the league by far

I am just surprised that McMahon isn't no. 9 instead of Rodgers, despite the downsides of Rodgers. It is a dump and a disgrace to Calgary and the CFL.

Agree, McMahon should be last on that list by a mile.

Almost. The Panther's board is the only one I can find where the LEDs wrap around the corners (like the rings). Ottawa's corners have static Bell signage.

Montreal's kind of wraps, though not quite like the Panthers board.

True in both cases. But neither are quite the one seamless ribbon that Florida has. Aesthetically, I just like it the best.

The above I was referencing were the Montreal and Ottawa boards. Should have made that clearer I suppose. I too like the effect of the seamless board.

Toronto will set the new standard. I think. However I also think Winnipeg will inspire 1 tenant arenas to be more creative

I am waiting for the day you will get near translucent screens and then you can have a nearly invisible, floating almost video board in the center.

What Atlanta is doing with the new Falcons stadium might be a game changer as all the video screens will be in the roofing veins. It will just be a long video ring around that is tall enough to show large aspect content.

Again another random empty useless comment. I never stated that the MTS Centre is a lone tenant arena in the first place, what I was referring to was sports venues that don't host multiple major league tenants (NBA/NHL) but...lets face it, you knew that.... I was just saying the NEW jumbotron at the MTS Centre could Motivate/Inspire lone tenant arenas (----->OR ONE MAIN TENANT ARENAS<-----) to represent the team it houses...but...you also knew that. You also know I'm clearly a Jet's fan so you weren't educating me on anything. You can stop with these subtle attempts to appear smart any time. They aren't working.

Have to quote this for when the "fit" hits the "shan" in here.

One tenant? How will a two tenant arena inspire one tenant arenas?

Take a deep breath and relax. You sound stressed. I had no idea u were a jets fan or where ur from. From ur name id have guessed ur an oilers fan.

Also it wasnt random. It was on topic of tennants at the mts centre.

It wasnt useless or empty, it was factual. Your single tennant comment could have confused ppl unaware of where the moose were playing. If you meant MAJOR tennants or only one league, then orginally saying major tennants would have avoided confusion. People cant read your mind when you say single tennants and expect people to think it means single sport tennants.

The comment wasnt to educate you. Everyone in the forum reads it. No need to go on a tirade.

Sorry i struck a nerve with you. Have a nice day.

I had to look it up, since I was only familiar with the exterior of the stadium. The video screens are amazing and a pretty good idea since it's huge and gives everyone the same view - as opposed to Dallas' stadium where the endzone/standing room seats can only see the smaller screen.

Still idiotic that perfectly good baseball and football stadiums are being abandoned after only 20 years, and they're looking at doing the same thing with the arena.

Again....When did I say MTS Centre was a single tenant arena? Never once did I say this. All I said is it will inspire single tenant arenas

Are you both just out to get on my nerves? Even if I did say the MTS Centre is a single tenant arena (which I didn't) When the scoreboard was designed it was a single tenant arena. So either way you make no sense.

I'm Not saying anything about the arena Itself. I'm referring to how the New scoreboard represents clearly that you're in the Jets barn. The originality of The Jets new Scoreboard Should inspire 1 (major) tenant arenas too be more creative. The leafs found a way to do it in a multiple tenant arena. But it most cases Only a single tenant Arena (xcel,console,CTT,Bell,Honda) Can Have the teams logo (ect) included in the Scoreboard.
