Plans for a 2nd tunnel at the west end of Exhibition GO have been on the books for years and there's some kind of pedestrian bridge under construction now - let's hope with the Ontario Line construction ramping up, they can make something happen, because it sure felt dangerously crowded in that tunnel last night. (Imagine how much worse it could have been if it was half full of angry Hamilton fans.)

Some people I know (to get to the bar in Liberty) went up Dufferin. Extra time, but avoids the crowds.

I second this. Dufferin is the way.

The Exhibition station is a complete disaster at the moment, in part because of construction of the expanded station. I'd like to think the new one will make access to and from BMO by foot or rail a lot easier, but I do not have a lot of faith in the powers that be having designed this all correctly. In the meantime, using the station (especially post-game) is going to be a major ordeal.

The preliminary 2026 schedule has been released and I'm happy to see it might not be as disruptive to the CFL as I'd feared. BMO Field will have games from June 12 thru July 2, and games in Vancouver June 13 thru July 7. (Toronto gets one game involving Canada, Vancouver 2.)

Let's hope the Argos can get the stadium back promptly once the preliminary round is over and it won't be too bad.

Hmm.....would a July 4th or 5th home opener be possible? Likely have to wait one more week, but we'll see.

With the temporary seats completely filling up the North end zone, I doubt it.

I'm guessing Argos will want to host Grey Cup in the (temporarily, I hope) expanded 45k stadium.
