Wouldn't something like that make more sense? Those temp bleachers just look cheap - for the Argos and TFC, as well.
You need a ticket to get in the stadium. Hamilton is not just giving away tickets. As for the stands in the north end at BMO, those are just a temporary solution for this season. The north end has seen many stands come and go. That section will get replaced in preparation for 2026. It would make more sense to try to fill that section rather than open up the other upper deck - if the Argos were gonna do a $15 ticket promotion.
