    Better dates than 2013, but worse spacing. Can't win them all.

    For whatever it's worth, Chris Rudge mentioned on Naylor's show that the Argos will play at the dome until 2017. I think we'll be there until at least 2015.

    You're probably right because the combination of renos needed at BMO and the Women's World Cup and Pan-Ams probably make 2015 an unrealistic move-in date. But I could see playing at BMO in 2016. Keep in mind the lease renewal at RC apparently allows the Argos to escape earlier than 2017.

    Any chance they will put a roof in BMO? I don't see myself going during winter without a roof to be honest.

    I agree, I can't see the Argos moving in to BMO Field in 2015 due to all the logistics, 2016 at the earliest.

    A roof covering the stands is part of the renovation plan that Leiweke has mentioned. Maybe we will finally see Argo winter coats.

    The Ticats are in Toronto on October 25th as well. If the sale to MLSE can be completed soon, perhaps they can effect some change that could boost ticket sales while the Argos are still at SkyDome.

    What about the July 5th game when the Riders are in town. Those are usually well attended games maybe more so this year since they are the defending champs. Also its the home opener, and if the weather is decent it would be a great way to spend a summer afternoon.

    I hope there is a boost all around. Just the lack of Tuesday games will hopefully prevent any games in the 18 thousand range.

    I'd be very surprised if the home opener doesn't break 25k. It's the Riders on Saturday and last year's opener drew 29k, IIRC.
