I am not old enough to have seen a game at Exhibition Stadium. I am told that my dad took me to a Jays game there in 1989 when they played a few months before SkyDome opened. My first Argos game probably wasn't until 1991 by which time the Argos had moved. I know much of the Argos history at the CNE was not great on the field, but if time machines were a thing, I'd love to go back and watch a game there when the Argos meant something much, much more to the people of Toronto.
I note several items of difference between Exhibition Stadium and BMO Field. The Argos since 2016 have been lucky with weather for the most part and the weather at some games in 2021 can be blamed on the later season partially. Also, the seagull "problem" has not been prevalent. I know TFC had a hawk on top the press box to keep them away, but I haven't seen it for Argo games.
